West syndrome is an age-related specific epileptic encephalopathy due to multiple and diverse causes. It is characterized by a unique type of seizure called epileptic (infantile) spasms and gross EEG abnormalities of hypsarrhythmia. Usually, West syndrome consists of a characteristic triad: infantile spasms, the arrest of psychomotor development, and hypsarrhythmia, although one element may be missing. Spasms may be flexor, extensor, lightning, or nods, but most commonly they are mixed. Onset peaks are observed between the ages of 4&ndash;7 months and always occur before the age of 1 year. Also, boys are more commonly affected, and the prognosis is generally poor.
