Copy number variants in adult patients with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome features

There is a high frequency of rare CNVs in adult patients with LGS-like epilepsy. The phenotypes of these background disorders may be obscured by the effects of intractable seizures and massive antiepileptic drug treatment. Previously, syndromic disorders were primarily identified by their clinical features; however, a genome wide approach with identification of the genotype might shed light on the phenotype.
