Abstract
Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe form of childhood epilepsy that is defined by generalized
multiple type seizures, slowness of intellectual growth, and a specific EEG disturbance. Children affected
might previously have infantile spasms or underlying brain disorder but etiology can be idiopathic. LGS
seizures are often treatment resistant and the long term prognosis is poor.
