    • French
    Avec près de 600 000 personnes touchées en France, l’épilepsie est la deuxième maladie neurologique la plus répandue après la maladie d’Alzheimer. Les récents progrès en neurosciences ont fait évoluer l’épileptologie : les différentes formes cliniques sont mieux individualisées, les examens complémentaires plus performants et les causes mieux documentées. Les progrès thérapeutiques sont réels, avec l’accès aux nouveaux médicaments anti-épileptiques, aux traitements chirurgicaux ou encore à la stimulation cérébrale, apportant autant d’alternatives thérapeutiques. Ces avancées combinées ont nettement amélioré la prise en charge des patients. Dans un style synthétique, cet ouvrage apporte des connaissances accessibles à tous, les stratégies thérapeutiques à mettre en place et met l’accent sur des sujets plus pointus comme les encéphalites auto-immunes, les comorbidités psychiatriques, les SUDEP ou encore la prise en charge thérapeutique de la femme enceinte. Une abondante imagerie (EEG, IRM, etc.) ainsi que les textes réglementaires et les recommandations viennent compléter le texte.
