Infantile Spasm

Infantile Spasm

Infantile spasms (IS), also known as West syndrome, is a rare but severe epileptic encephalopathy that typically presents in infants aged 3-12 months. The condition is characterized by sudden spasms, hypsarrhythmia on EEG, and developmental regression. IS has a profound long-term impact, with many children developing intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, or refractory epilepsy.

Adenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is produced and secreted by anterior pituitary gland. It is also called corticotropin, serum ACTH, etc. The hormone’s function is to regulate the levels of steroid hormone cortisol which is regulated by adrenal gland. ACTH is associated with diseases such as pituitary tumors and adrenal malfunctions. Deficiency of ACTH arises due to the absence or decreased production of adrenocorticotropic hormone, which leads to adrenal insufficiency. This results
