Abstract
The relationship between hippocampal cell loss and mossy fiber sprouting (MFS), and the occurrence of spontaneous seizures (epilepsy) following early-life status epilepticus was investigated in laboratory studies at the Division of Neurology, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA.

FC risk factors may have an affinity to the right hemisphere. (Janszky J, Woermann FG, Barsi P et al Neurology April 8, 2003;60:1209-1210)

The extension of these studies to effects of early-life experimental febrile seizures induced by artificial fever on later development of hippocampal pathology and epilepsy would be of interest
Summary
FC risk factors may have an affinity to the right hemisphere. (Janszky J, Woermann FG, Barsi P et al Neurology April 8, 2003;60:1209-1210). The relationship between hippocampal cell loss and mossy fiber sprouting (MFS), and the occurrence of spontaneous seizures (epilepsy) following early-life status epilepticus was investigated in laboratory studies at the Division of Neurology, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA. Epilepsy after early-life seizures can be independent of hippocampal injury.
