Distinctive genetic architecture of infantile epileptic spasms syndrome compared to self‐limited infantile epilepsy by trios whole‐exome sequencing

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) and self‐limited infantile epilepsy (SeLIE) are both genetically heterogeneous disorders during infancy with distinct prognoses. To better define the genetic spectrum of IESS, we performed a comparative genetic analysis using SeLIE cases as a reference group. Methods We performed whole‐exome
