Neurocognitive Profile and F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Brain Imaging Correlation in Children with Electrical Status Epilepticus during Sleep.

 Electrical status epilepticus in sleep (ESES) is defined by near-continuous epileptiform discharges during sleep along with cognitive, behavioral, and/or imaging abnormalities. We studied the neurocognitive profile and their correlation with F fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) brain abnormalities in children with ESES.  Fourteen children with ESES with normal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) from March to December 2019 were included.
