Ohtahara syndrome (OS) is a rare early infantile epileptic encephalopathy that is characterized by an abnormal electroencephalogram (EEG) and intractable seizures. The patient of this reported case is a 4-month-old male infant delivered by cesarean section with an uneventful antenatal and neonatal period. At 2 months of age, he developed seizures that were refractory to anticonvulsants. Prolonged video EEG showed a characteristic suppression-burst pattern. We report an infant OS associated with heterozygous mutation in the GABRB3 gene.

AbstractEarly infantile epileptic encephalopathy-64 (EIEE 64), also called RHOBTB2-related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE), is caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants (EIEE 64; MIM#618004) in the Rho-related BTB domain-containing protein 2 (RHOBTB2) gene. To date, only 13 cases with RHOBTB2-related DEE have been reported. We add to the literature the 14th case of EIEE 64, identified by whole exome sequencing, caused by a heterozygous pathogenic variant in RHOBTB2 (c.1531C > T), p.Arg511Trp. This additional case supports the main features of RHOBTB2-related DEE: infantile-onset seizures, severe intellectual disability, impaired motor functions, postnatal microcephaly, recurrent status epilepticus, and hemiparesis after seizures.

A child of 2.5 years old had an intractable seizure, clinically had megalencephaly and mental retardation. On evaluation, video EEG showed fronto-central seizures and dysfunction R 1, scalp EEG showed bilateral paroxysmal bursts, MRI brain showed prominent vascular spaces in the hemisphere, GE reflux scan showed GERD. Other investigations were within normal limits. The child was treated with antiepileptics and antireflux measures and also rehabilitation.
