 Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a rare and severe form of childhood epilepsy, falling into the category of severe infantile epileptic syndromes, which includes epileptic neonatal encephalopathy with suppression-burst, West syndrome and severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy. Typically, LGS manifests with seizures starting in early childhood, typically between ages 3 and 5. It is characterized by significant physical risks for affected children and teenagers, including frequent falls, injuries, and cognitive impairment, severely impacting their quality of life. While LGS may affect children with infantile spasms or underlying brain issues, it can also have an unknown cause (idiopathic). Almost always, antecedent conditions linked to LGS involve the cerebral cortex, with phenomena of LGS stemming from the cerebral cortex and corpus callosum. LGS is most commonly associated with damage to both frontal lobes. However, any brain damage can potentially lead to LGS, and the lack of specif...

  Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a rare and severe form of epilepsy that begins in childhood. It belongs to the group of severe infantile epileptic syndrome (epileptic neonatal encephalopathy with suppression-burst, West syndrome, severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy). People with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome start having seizures when they are young, usually between the ages of 3 and 5. LGS is also a physically dangerous epilepsy syndrome for children and teenagers due to frequent falls, injuries, and cognitive impairment, which can severely limit one's quality of life. Children with infantile spasms or underlying brain disorders may be affected, but the cause can also be idiopathic. Antecedent conditions associated with LGS almost always involve the cerebral cortex. The cerebral cortex and the corpus callosum produce some of the phenomena of LGS. Among lesional causes, those involving both frontal lobes most commonly lead to LGS development. However, any brain damage may be associ...
