Epilepsia de inicio entre el mes y los tres meses de vida: nuestra experiencia de 11 años

Our experience corroborates the poor prognosis associated with early onset, between 1 and 3 months, of epileptic seizures. Given the wide aetiological range and the poor prognosis in the absence of specific treatment, an appropriate diagnostic-therapeutic strategy is required to avoid diagnostic uncertainties and can identify potentially treatable cases, such as some inborn errors of metabolism. In this age group, the protocol for convulsions of unknown cause must be the same as that for neonatal convulsions, including treatment with a vitamin cocktail, after collecting biological samples.
