摘要: In this retrospective study, we evaluated 740 patients with epilepsy in Aseer Central Hospital, Abha, Saudi Arabia between January and December 2012, the aim of identifying any effect exerted by presence parental consanguinity (PC) on classifications etiologies. PC was documented 183 (24%). The family history (FHE) significantly recorded (38% vs 22%; p 0.05). MRI EEG findings were not affected PC. Therefore, has no apparent influence classifications, etiologies, or investigations, but only associated FHE. Lacking an could be explained heterogeneous etiologies leading to epilepsy. Counseling families epileptic members should go beyond usual counseling for
