Local alterations of hemostatic-fibrinolytic mechanisms in reforming subdural hematomas.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:A number of familial temporal lobe epilepsies (TLE) have been recently recognized. Mutations in LGI1 (leucine-rich, glioma-inactivated 1 gene) have been found in a few families with the syndrome of autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF). The authors aimed to determ...
