Abstract

V originále

Aim: The primary goal was to determine the yield of next-generation sequencing (NGS) epilepsy gene panels used for epilepsy etiology diagnosing using a multidisciplinary approach and to demonstrate the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations. The secondary goal was to evaluate the application of precision medicine in selected patients. Methods: This single-center retrospective study included a total of 175 patients (95 males and 80 females) aged 0-19 years. They were examined between 2015 and 2020 using an NGS epilepsy gene panel (270 genes). A bioinformatic analysis was performed including copy number variation identifica-tion. Thorough genotype-phenotype correlation was performed. Results: Out of 175 patients, described pathogenic variants or novel variants with clear pathogenic impact were identified in 30 patients (17.14%). Genotype-phenotype correlations and parental DNA anal-ysis were performed, and genetic diagnosis was confirmed on the basis of the results in another 16 out of 175 patients (9.14%). The diagnostic yield of our study increased from 30 to 46 patients (by 53.33%) by the precise genotype-phenotype correlation. Interpretation: We emphasize a complex genotype-phenotype correlation and a multidisciplinary approach in evaluating the results of the NGS epilepsy gene panel, which enables the most accurate genetic diagnosis and correct interpretation of results.
