Lennox

Lennox refers to Lennox syndrome, a rare and severe form of epilepsy characterized by multiple seizure types, including atonic (drop seizures), and a developmental delay or intellectual disability. It typically begins in early childhood and can significantly impact a child's development and quality of life. The condition is often associated with abnormal brain activity patterns, particularly in the form of slow spike-and-wave discharges on EEG. Treatment is complex, often involving a combination of medications, dietary changes, and sometimes surgical options, aiming to control seizures and support development. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving outcomes.
