French national reference center for rare epilepsies (CRéER)
The Reference Center for Rare Epilepsies (CRéER) at Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital is the coordinating site of the national network of centers dedicated to the care of patients with rare epilepsies. CREER is made up of several constituent sites and skills in partnership with patient associations extending throughout the national territory (metropolitan France and DOM).
Our reference center has integrated the DéfiScience rare diseases healthcare network, which brings together resources and expertises in the field of brain development and intellectual disability rare diseases. Our Necker site is a founding and board member of the EpiCARE european network dedicated to rare and complex epilepsies (European Reference Network for Rares and Complex Epilepsies)
In case of emergency
CRéER’s objective is to improve knowledge of rare epilepsies, their diagnoses, their causes, their social and societal impacts and to offer the best overall care including specific therapies, whether by using drugs, surgery or dietetics. We offer a translational clinical-research vision for all our areas of work in order to get back to the patient and his family with the appropriate and optimal care.
Particular importance is given to monitoring the cognitive development of patients, and neuropsychiatric disorders, the majority of rare epilepsies can be accompanied by cognitive, behavioral or psychological difficulties.
The transition to adulthood is another major focus of our network, our centers including pediatric and adult experts have the mission of preparing and improving this transition.
In order to achieve these objectives, our reference center aims to promote:
- improving patient care by ensuring early diagnosis of the type of epilepsy or syndrome;
- the proposal of different treatment modalities (medication, surgery, ketogenic diet, vagus nerve stimulator);
- multidisciplinary follow-up of patients taking into account developmental problems, psychiatric disorders and behavior;
- improving local care;
- the transition from pediatrics to the adult sector;
- the promotion of therapeutic trials and research around its themes at the national and international level;
- training for doctors and paramedical professionals.

Professor Rima Nabbout heads the epilepsies program, coordinates the CRéER sites and develops healthcare of excellence and research in order to carry out these missions for patients with rare epilepsies, in different areas of activity:
- Therapeutic pathway of the child with rare epilepsies and his parents
- Therapeutic pathway for infants and adolescents and their families with Bourneville tuberous sclerosis
The national diagnostic and care protocols (PNDS) are good practice guidelines for rare diseases. The objective of a PNDS is to explain to concerned professionals the optimal diagnostic and therapeutic care and the care pathway of a patient suffering from a given rare disease.
As planned in the second national rare diseases plan 2011-2014, they are developed by the rare diseases reference and competence centers using a method proposed by the Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS).
The PNDS include a « summary for the attending physician » section
- Dravet syndrome (2021)
- Tuberous sclerosis complex (2021)
- Epileptic encephalopathy with continuous spike-and-wave during slow sleep (2021)
- Infant myoclonic epilepsy (2019)
- Sturge Weber Syndrome – co-authored with the rare diseases health sector FIMARAD (in preparation)

35 to 40 connected participants composed of: doctors (general practitioners, pediatrician, coordinator), nurses (coordination, general care), health executive, psychomotrician, occupational therapist, physiotherapist.
Feedback from participants :
« Thank you for this training day. « Dr. Aviva M.
« Thank you for your intervention. It was a really rich and instructive professional exchange. « Sophie C. coordinating nurse
« Glad to be able to participate in the next meeting » Christine nurse
« Thank you again for this rewarding day! I will participate in the next one with great pleasure. « Corinne G. nurse
« I found this day particularly interesting. I attended the conference with Dr. B. who is on the MAS adjoining the EMP. I would like to attend this type of day or half day again. The video conference is, despite its heaviness and the fact that communication is not very spontaneous, a good solution for me. It is easier to implement (I am very part-time on several structures). As for the mobile team and teleconsultation, these resources can be really interesting and I will share this with the department head and the director of the structure. « Dr Céline R.
« Friday was indeed a very interesting day. « Dr. Natacha L.
September 21 and 22, 2020 : Epilepsy FANS 2020
The meeting of fans of epilepsy, days of discussion of clinical cases and collaborations within the CRéER network did not fail to the annual appointment, the 3rd Monday of September 2020.
Due to the health situation, this year’s meeting was held by videoconference and all the neuro-pediatricians were present!
The few technical problems were overcome somehow and the discussion was able to take place as usual.
The lunch quiz replaced dinner and Dr. Cécile Laroche won hands down!
Thank you to all the colleagues who were present and who made this event possible even from a distance!
See you next year in person at ….?
Candidate cities are expected!
My best regards and a big thank you to our nurse-coordinator, Mr. Théo Teng, who handled the logistics brilliantly!
