This clinic presents 3 cases. In the first case, Maria is the mother of Ronald, a 9-year-old child who presented with a focal seizure a week ago. After performing a physical exam and imaging studies, the doctor is ready to talk with Maria about Ronald’s diagnosis and possible treatment plan. In the second case, the doctor is meeting with Arthur, who is the father of Bella, a 7-month-old baby who has been experiencing infantile spasms and focal seizures, and has recently been diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex. In the third case, Melody is the mother of a 4-year-old child, Thomas, who has tuberous sclerosis complex after experiencing infantile spasms as a baby. However, he has not been responding to his current treatment, and the doctor and Melody are now discussing how to proceed.
