Abstract
Ohtahara syndrome is a rare cause of epileptic seizures during the neonatal period. This is believed to be the first report of this syndrome with a specific metabolic defect. Defects in respiratory chain function may be more common than previously assumed in patients with this epilepsy syndrome.Keywords
