Question

Can epilepsy recurrences in infants be controlled?

Answer

Infantile spasms are a relatively complex form of epilepsy that is difficult to control. It requires the combined use of various anti-epileptic medications, and as the frequency of seizures increases, the intellectual level may deteriorate. Typical clinical manifestations include recurrent head nodding and the recurrence of explosive suppression in EEG. After the onset of this disease, it is still relatively difficult to control.
