Alternate names

EARLY INFANTILE EPILEPTIC ENCEPHALOPATHY Is also known as early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression-bursts, ohtahara syndrome, eiee

Description

Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE), or Ohtahara syndrome, is one of the most severe forms of age-related epileptic encephalopathies, characterized by the onset of tonic spasms within the first 3 months of life that can be generalized or lateralized, independent of the sleep cycle and that can occur hundreds of times per day, leading to psychomotor impairment and death.

  • Seizures
  • Encephalopathy
  • Generalized myoclonic seizures
  • Focal-onset seizure
  • Epileptic encephalopathy
