OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the outcome of West syndrome and to elucidate the differences in the outcome related to the timing of brain injury.
STUDY DESIGN: Medical records of 60 patients who were followed regularly for more than seven years were reviewed. The following clinical features were assessed: onset, seizure evolution, electroencephalography and intelligence. Those variables were compared among five groups: cryptogenic, prenatal, preterm, term, and postnatal groups.
RESULTS: The onset ages of the postnatal group were later than those of the others (P<.05). The relapse after adrenocorticotropic hormone therapy of the preterm group was the earliest among the groups (P<.05). Regarding encelphalography, the ratio of patients with focal discharges was higher in the postnatal group than in the prenatal group (P<.05). The ratios of patients in whom focal epilepsy developed were higher in the term and postnatal group than in the cryptogenic and prenatal group (P<.05). The term group showed similar characteristics to those of the postnatal group. Seven of the 60 had normal intelligence, including three girls with tuberous sclerosis.
CONCLUSION: The diverse outcomes of West syndrome depending on etiology seemed to be related to the timing of brain injury and brain development.
