Approach to epileptic encephalopathies
Presenting with seizures as prominent/unique symptom
- Vitamin or enzymatic cofactor dependency
- Channelopathy
- Unknown/multiple etiology
- Ohtahara syndrome (EIEE)
- Single enzyme or protein dysfunction
- Syntaxin binding Protein 1 (STXBP1) deficiency

- Disorders of amino acids metabolism
-
Presenting with seizures associated in a syndromic phenotype
