PCDH19 Epilepsy
ABOUT THE PCDH19 ALLIANCE
Our mission is to improve the lives of children and families affected by PCDH19 Epilepsy.
WHAT IS PCDH19?
PCDH19 Epilepsy is a condition with a wide spectrum of severity in seizures, cognitive delays and other symptoms, which are all caused by a mutation of the PCDH19 gene on the x chromosome.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS?
The most consistent feature of this disease is seizures that come in clusters and last for days or week at a time and do not respond well to available medications. Seizures are often drug resistant and difficult to control. These seizures are accompanied by rapid oxygen desaturations and cyanosis.
