Epilepsy Syndrome
An epilepsy syndrome is a form of epilepsy characterized by a specific type of seizure, distinct abnormalities on the EEG, and a corresponding type of treatment.
There are various epilepsy syndromes, and the severity and prognosis can differ. Some syndromes have a good prognosis and are well treated, while others have a poorer prognosis. In these cases, seizures are often difficult to manage, and intellectual development may decline.
