Visão geral

A síndrome dos espasmos epilépticos infantis (Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome) é uma síndrome epiléptica rara caracterizada pelo início de espasmos epilépticos tipicamente em bebês entre 2 e 12 meses de idade, podendo ocorrer raramente até os 24 meses. Os lactentes podem não apresentar histórico clínico prévio ou exibir manifestações que refletem a causa subjacente da condição. A tríade clássica composta por espasmos epilépticos, hipsarritmia e estagnação ou regressão do desenvolvimento é historicamente referida como síndrome de West.[1][2]

Sinais e sintomas

O quadro clínico inclui manifestações neurológicas e do desenvolvimento, tais como espasmos infantis, descargas epileptiformes multifocais, crises paroxísticas de riso, atraso global do desenvolvimento moderado, atraso no desenvolvimento motor grosso, tônus muscular anormal, distúrbio do ciclo sono-vigília, hipersensibilidade tátil, sensação de dor prejudicada e bruxismo.[1][2]

Outras manifestações físicas e funcionais descritas abrangem infecções recorrentes do trato respiratório inferior, apneia, necessidade de alimentação por gastrostomia na infância, torção estereotipada das mãos, cifose, hálux valgo e falanges proximais largas da mão. Características craniofaciais e oculares podem incluir sinofris, testa alta ou estreita, exotropia, esotropia, borda do vermelhão espessa, filtro labial profundo e frieza periférica.[1][2]

Causas genéticas

A etiologia genética da síndrome envolve diversos genes catalogados, incluindo ARX, SPTAN1, CNPY3, GRIN2B, GUF1, SCN2A, CDKL5, SIK1, PHACTR1, PLCB1, WDR45 e PIGA.[1][3][4]

Diagnóstico

A investigação diagnóstica conta com suporte genético e molecular especializado, existindo 18 testes genéticos disponíveis e 816 variantes registradas na base ClinVar associadas à condição.[1][3][4][5]

Tratamento e manejo

No Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), o manejo da condição conta com medicamentos antiepilépticos dispensados por meio do Protocolo Clínico e Diretrizes Terapêuticas (PCDT) de Epilepsia (Portaria Conjunta SAS-SCTIE/MS nº 17, de 21 de junho de 2018). Estão disponíveis para fornecimento nas farmácias do SUS: vigabatrina (comprimido de 500 mg), ácido valproico (comprimido de 250 mg) e valproato de sódio (apresentações em xarope 50 mg/mL, comprimidos de 250 mg e 500 mg, e cápsula de 250 mg).[6][6][6][6][6][6]

O PCDT de Epilepsia também contempla a dispensação pública de outros fármacos anticonvulsivantes, como topiramato (comprimidos de 25 mg, 50 mg e 100 mg), primidona (comprimidos de 100 mg e 250 mg) e levetiracetam (solução oral de 100 mg/mL e comprimidos de 250 mg, 500 mg e 750 mg).[6][6][6][6][6][6][6][6][6]

Tratamentos citados na literatura

EM LINGUAGEM SIMPLES

O transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 é caracterizado por crises que começam na infância, seguidas de atrasos significativos em muitos aspectos do desenvolvimento.

As crises no transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 geralmente começam dentro dos primeiros 3 meses de vida e podem aparecer já na primeira semana após o nascimento. Os tipos de crises mudam com a idade e podem seguir um padrão previsível. Os tipos mais comuns são crises tônico-clônicas generalizadas, que envolvem perda de consciência, rigidez muscular e convulsões; crises tônicas, que são caracterizadas por contrações musculares anormais; e espasmos epilépticos, que envolvem episódios curtos de sacudidas musculares. As crises ocorrem diariamente na maioria das pessoas com transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5, embora possam haver períodos em que ficam sem crises. As crises no transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 geralmente não melhoram com o tratamento.

O desenvolvimento é prejudicado em crianças com transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5. A maioria apresenta deficiência intelectual grave e pouca ou nenhuma fala. O desenvolvimento das habilidades motoras grossas, como sentar, ficar em pé e caminhar, é atrasado ou não é alcançado. Cerca de um terço dos indivíduos afetados consegue caminhar de forma independente. As habilidades motoras finas, como pegar objetos pequenos com os dedos, também são prejudicadas; cerca de metade dos indivíduos afetados tem uso intencional das mãos. A maioria das pessoas com essa condição tem problemas de visão (deficiência visual cortical).

Outras características comuns do transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 incluem movimentos repetitivos das mãos (estereotipias), como bater palmas, lamber as mãos e chupar as mãos; ranger de dentes (bruxismo); sono interrompido; dificuldades de alimentação; e problemas gastrointestinais, incluindo constipação e refluxo de conteúdo ácido do estômago para o esôfago (refluxo gastroesofágico). Alguns indivíduos afetados apresentam episódios de respiração irregular. Características faciais distintivas em algumas pessoas com transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 incluem testa alta e larga, olhos grandes e profundos, um espaço bem definido entre o nariz e o lábio superior (filtrum), lábios cheios, dentes espaçados e palato alto. Outras diferenças físicas também podem ocorrer, como tamanho de cabeça incomumente pequeno (microcefalia), curvatura lateral da coluna (escoliose) e dedos afinados.

O transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 foi anteriormente classificado como uma forma atípica da síndrome de Rett. Essas condições têm características comuns, incluindo crises, deficiência intelectual e outros problemas de desenvolvimento. No entanto, os sinais e sintomas associados ao transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 e sua causa genética são distintos dos da síndrome de Rett, e o transtorno de deficiência de CDKL5 agora é considerado uma condição separada.

Effectiveness, tolerability, and retention of the ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome: a single-center cohort study.

Frontiers in neurology2026

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness, tolerability, and retention of the ketogenic diet (KD) in patients with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). In this single-center prospective cohort study, baseline data were collected from the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University. Follow-up assessments were conducted at 3, 6, and 12 months after initiating KD. Outcomes included seizure frequency, adverse reactions, and retention rates. Survival analysis was performed to examine the association between retention rates and follow-up duration. A total of 74 patients with IESS were admitted. The seizure response rates were 56.8% (42/74), 41.9% (31/74), and 25.7% (19/74) at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. The corresponding seizure-free rates were 13.5% (10/74), 13.5% (10/74), and 8.1% (8/74), respectively. Retention rates at 3, 6, and 12 months were 70.2% (52/74), 43.2% (32/74), and 25.7% (19/74), respectively. Survival analysis indicated that retention rates decreased over time, most markedly within the first 3 months. Responders to the KD exhibited significantly higher retention rates than non-responders throughout the 12 months (HR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.19-0.64; p < 0.001). Adverse reactions were reported in 20.3% of patients, with gastrointestinal symptoms being the most common (16.2%), including constipation (6.8%), diarrhea (5.4%), and vomiting (4.0%). The KD demonstrated favorable effectiveness and an acceptable safety profile in patients with IESS, particularly in those who did not respond to first-line antiseizure medications (ASMs). The higher retention rates among responders supports its utility in children with IESS. Therefore, early initiation of the KD should be considered for IESS patients who do not respond to first-line ASMs.

Deep learning-based real-time seizure detection and multi-seizure classification on pediatric EEG.

Frontiers in neurology2026

To develop a reliable and accurate seizure detection method using deep learning models capable of detecting and classifying multiple seizure types in real time. We retrospectively collected electroencephalography (EEG) recordings, which were acquired as part of routine diagnostic tests for patients aged 3 months to ≤18 years of age with childhood absence epilepsy, infantile epileptic spasms syndrome, other generalized epilepsy, and focal epilepsy, between January 2018 and December 2022 at Severance Children's Hospital. We used EEG recordings from both seizure and non-seizure patients, which were downsampled to 200 Hz for real-time seizure detection and multi-classification. Of the 199 patients (620 seizures), 49 (297 seizures) belonged to the childhood absence epilepsy group, 16 (200 seizures) to the infantile epileptic spasms syndrome group, 14 (76 seizures) to other generalized epilepsy group, 19 (47 seizures) to focal epilepsy group, and 101 to the normal group. The results showed the best overall performance of AUROC 0.98 and APROC of 0.73 with ResNet with Long-Short Term Network and a 12 s sliding window on real-time seizure detection task. Furthermore, ResNet50 without the frequency bands feature extractor showed the best overall weighted performance for multi-class seizure detection with 0.99 AUROC and 0.99 APPRC. Our approach proposes robust methods which include EEG preprocessing strategy with real-time detection/classification of multiple seizures, which helps monitor pediatric seizure. The result shows that real-time seizure detection can be effectively applied to real-world clinical datasets from a pediatric epilepsy unit with realistic performance and speed.

Analysis of treatment outcome variations in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome.

Frontiers in neurology2026

To explore the key factors influencing outcomes in children with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) and to elucidate their interrelationships to provide insights for optimizing clinical practice. This is a retrospective, single-center design study, included children diagnosed with IESS at West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University from April 2019 to April 2024. Descriptive analyses were performed to evaluate genetic and non-genetic etiological subgroups, categorized as structural and unknown causes. Genetic testing results were compared across groups. Pearson correlation and logistic regression analyses were employed to examine differences in treatment efficacy and identify associated risk factors. In this study, 128 children diagnosed with IESS were enrolled and evenly divided into gene-positive and gene-negative groups. The gene-positive group exhibited earlier seizure onset, with a higher prevalence of hypotonia and developmental regression compared to the gene-negative group. Within the gene-negative group, children were further categorized into structural abnormality and unknown causes subgroups, among which EEG hypsarrhythmia was more frequently observed in the structural abnormality subgroup. The gene-positive group showed significantly poorer responses to ACTH, vigabatrin, and other ASMs. ACTH combined with vigabatrin therapy improved outcomes in some of the children. The non-ACTH treatment group demonstrated superior EEG improvement outcomes when compared with the ACTH-treated group (p = 0.028). The overall therapeutic response rate was satisfactory, with 75% in the gene-positive group and 100% in the gene-negative group. In the gene-negative group, frequent seizures and developmental regression emerged as significant risk factors for poor treatment response. The prognosis for IESS remains challenging, with treatment responses closely tied to etiology. Children with genetic etiologies demonstrate poorer responses to ACTH and other ASMs. However, ACTH combination with vigabatrin may improve treatment outcomes in some cases. Our findings suggest that ACTH treatment may not exert a substantial influence on long-term EEG outcomes in children with IESS.

Long-term outcome in children with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome: a multicenter retrospective study in Korea.

Clinical and experimental pediatrics2026 Feb 19

Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a severe form of infantile epilepsy with a high lifetime morbidity burden. We aimed to assess the long-term epilepsy and neurodevelopmental outcomes based on how children with IESS have been managed over the past few decades. This retrospective multicenter study included children diagnosed with IESS between 1994 and 2021 with a minimum follow-up period of 2 years. Data on demographics, clinical features, medical history, diagnostic evaluations, and treatments used to control spasms were collected. Epilepsy and neurodevelopmental outcomes were assessed at final follow-up. A total of 378 infants with IESS were included. The mean age at onset of spasms was 7.3 (range, 1-24) months and mean follow-up duration was 7.9 (range, 2-28) years. Etiologies were identified in 65.1% of cases, with acquired structural etiologies being the most prevalent (29.9%). Among the genetic and genetic-structural etiologies, tuberous sclerosis complex (n=35), Down syndrome (n=8), Miller-Dieker syndrome (n=3), and 15q duplication syndrome (n=3) were the most common. Vigabatrin was prescribed to 93.9% of the patients, suggesting that it was the mainstay of treatment. At the last follow-up, 77.8% of the children remained on antiseizure medications and 29.1% had drug-resistant epilepsy. Approximately 90% had intellectual disabilities, and half of the eligible individuals had received special education. The IESS imposes a substantial burden on affected children and their families and often leads to chronic epilepsy and impaired cognitive function. Consensus diagnostic and treatment guidelines tailored to the Korean clinical practice are necessary to ensure early diagnosis and timely treatment.

Does First-Line Treatment Impact Outcomes in Trisomy 21-Associated Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome? A Multicenter North American Analysis.

Pediatric neurology2026 Apr

This study aimed to evaluate electroclinical remission and long-term outcomes in children with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) associated with trisomy 21 (T21). We hypothesized that initial treatment with hormone therapy would result in higher remission rates compared to treatment with vigabatrin. A retrospective study of T21 and IESS patients was conducted across six North American tertiary pediatric centers. A total of 114 children with IESS were identified. Electroclinical remission without relapse occurred in 31.5% (17/54) of patients receiving hormone therapy as first-line treatment compared with 16.7% (6/36) treated with vigabatrin monotherapy (P = 0.114). Median time to remission was shorter with hormone therapy (41 days) than with vigabatrin (142 days; P < 0.001). Median age at last follow-up was 33 months (IQR 18-83) with a median follow-up duration of 25 months (IQR 11-74). At last follow-up, ongoing epilepsy was present in 30.7% (35/114) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in 25.4% (29/114), with similar rates across first-line treatment groups (ongoing epilepsy: hormonal 28.6% vs vigabatrin 30.6%; ASD: 21.4% vs 33.3%; all P > 0.05). Children with T21-associated IESS were approximately two times more likely to achieve electroclinical remission with hormone therapy as first treatment compared to vigabatrin, although this difference did not reach statistical significance. The median time to remission was significantly shorter in children who received hormone therapy as their first treatment compared to those treated with vigabatrin. The initial treatment did not impact long-term clinical outcomes, such as ongoing epilepsy or ASD.
