Description : Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy is a severe form of epilepsy first reported by Ohtahara et al. (1976). It is characterized by frequent tonic seizures or spasms beginning in infancy with a specific EEG finding of suppression-burst patterns, characterized by high-voltage bursts alternating with almost flat suppression phases. Approximately 75% of EIEE patients progress to 'West syndrome,' which is characterized by tonic spasms with clustering, arrest of psychomotor development, and hypsarrhythmia on EEG (Kato et al., 2007). Deprez et al. (2009) reviewed the genetics of epilepsy syndromes starting in the first year of life and included a diagnostic algorithm.;

Inheritance : X-linked recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the X-linked aristaless-related homeobox gene (ARX, 300382.0001);
