DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2018.04.002
Abstract: Introduction Patients having a hypothalamic hamartoma frequently present epileptic attacks of laughter, and they later experience multiple additional seizure types. Because of these types of seizures, hypothalamic hamartomas are considered to be a type of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eplepsyres.2021.106624
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Evidence exists for the role of the hypothalamic hamartoma's topography as a determinant for the clinical presentation. How the hamartoma relation to the hypothalamic structures can make clinical presentations, severity and surgery outcomes different… read more here.

Clinical features and evolution of the gelastic seizures–hypothalamic hamartoma syndrome
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Epilepsia"
DOI: 10.1111/epi.13753
Abstract: Gelastic seizures, usually with onset in early infancy, are the hallmark manifestation of hypothalamic hamartoma. This seizure type is directly generated by hamartoma itself, intrinsically epileptogenic because of its anatomofunctional organization. Other types of seizures,… read more here.

Hypothalamic hamartoma: a cause of precocious puberty
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "BMJ Case Reports"
DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2022-254429
Abstract: Hypothalamic hamartomas are uncommon congenital malformations that present as precocious puberty, gelastic seizures and/or psychiatric disorders. Characteristic changes in MRI scans lead to a diagnosis. Treatment may include surgery or gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) depending… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2017/2432315
Abstract: Background. Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) are rare tumor-like malformations that may present with complex partial seizures refractory to anticonvulsants in adulthood. The condition may be misdiagnosed because of rarity. Case Presentation. We report a 25-year-old man… read more here.
