摘要
We describe a term female infant who presented with multiple seizures early in infancy. The clinical and electrical seizures were refractory to traditional antiepileptic medications. After extensive workup, seizure panel testing revealed KCNT1 gene mutation, which is associated with nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy and epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures. The infant's condition improved with the combination of traditional as well non-traditional antiepileptic therapy.
