Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic diseases in children, and cannot be controlled with conventional antiepileptic drugs in 30% of cases. Therefore, in these cases, alternative approach such as corticosteroid therapy (CT) is used. The aim of this study was to analyze different types of CT used to treat drug-resistant childhood epilepsies, treated at Rijeka University Hospital Centre during a 5-year period (2016-2020). This retrospective study included 32 patients. The following parameters were analyzed: number of patients with a particular diagnosis, average age (in months) at the onset of epilepsy, average epilepsy duration (in months) prior to CT, average number of antiepileptic drugs used prior to CT, presence of changes on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), presence of comorbidities, and types of CT. The average age at the onset of epilepsy was 14 months and average epilepsy duration prior to CT was 16 months. On average, 5 antiepileptic drugs were used prior to CT. MRI changes were present in 53.13% and comorbidities in 81.25% of study patients. Prednisone therapy was used in 28.13%, combined therapy with prednisone and methylprednisolone in 65.63%, and methylprednisolone in 6.25% of patients. Study results revealed the use of CT for particular diagnosis to differ among the centers, as well as within the same center, so it is important to highlight the importance of reaching universal guidelines for CT therapy of childhood epilepsies.
