Conclusion:
This is the first report of DDMS in a Malian patient. It highlights the
challenges for an early diagnosis and the treatment of this rare
condition. We suggest that in the presence of pharmaco-resistant
epilepsy in childhood and body deformities, further investigations
should be undertaken to establish evidence-based diagnosis for an
informed disease management strategy, particularly in low resources
setting where access to the surgery of epilepsy is highly limited or
unavailable.
