dc.description.abstractPurpose: To assess the possible contribution of factors in additional to intrauterine anti-seizure medication (ASM) exposure in the occurrence of fetal malformation in women with ASM-treated epilepsy. Results: Logistic regression analysis showed that maternal age over 31 years, family histories of fetal malformation, and conception after assisted fertility treatment, and also dosage of valproate, carbamazepine, and topiramate, made statistically significant (P < 0.05) contributions to the fetal malformation rate in 2223 pregnancies in Australian women with epilepsy. The malformation rates were lower in pregnancies where the non-ASM-associated contributory factors were not present: statistically significantly so for all ASM-exposed pregnancies, and those pregnancies exposed to the more potent teratogenic drugs. Conclusion: It is important to consider the possible roles of identified, and also possible non-identified, non-ASM factors in relation to the occurrence of fetal malformations in the pregnancies of women with ASM-treated epilepsy.
