Refining management strategies for Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: Updated algorithms and practical approaches by Stéphane Auvin, Alexis Arzimanoglou, Mercè Falip, Pasquale Striano, J. Helen Cross

“…Abstract Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) characterized by multiple types of drug‐resistant seizures (which must include tonic seizures) with classical onset before 8 years (although some cases with later onset have also been described), abnormal electroencephalographic features, and cognitive and behavioral impairments. Management and treatment of LGS are challenging, due to associated comorbidities and the treatment resistance of seizures. …”
