Abstract

A case of neonatal epileptic encephalopathy with suppression-bursts associated with olivary dentate nuclei dysplasia is reported. This unusual association shows that the so-called Ohtahara syndrome could correspond to several different brain malformations sometimes disclosable only by neuropathological examination.

Key words

Suppression-bursts - Neonatal epilepsy - Brain malformation
