## Descrição clínica

Uma síndrome que se caracteriza por um conjunto de sintomas e sinais, e/ou por alterações no eletroencefalograma (EEG), que mostram atividade epiléptica. Frequentemente, está associada a outros problemas de saúde, como dificuldades de raciocínio e aprendizado, deficiência intelectual, atrasos no desenvolvimento de movimentos (tanto os amplos, como andar, quanto os mais finos, como escrever), dificuldades de fala e linguagem, e pode afetar outras funções do corpo. Suas causas podem ser específicas — como problemas na estrutura do cérebro, causas genéticas, metabólicas (ligadas ao funcionamento químico do corpo), imunológicas (relacionadas ao sistema de defesa) ou infecciosas — ou sua origem pode ser desconhecida.
