Dr. Aaron B. Bowen discusses the relationship between epilepsy and EEG findings in succinate dehydrogenase deficiency.

Dr Aaron B. Bowen explores epilepsy and EEG features in succinate dehydrogenase (complex II) deficiency, focusing on refractory epilepsy and the presence of RHADS, an EEG pattern more commonly associated with POLG-related disease, and what this means for diagnosis and differential thinking in mitochondrial disorders.
