ABSTRACT
Infantile spasms(IS)is an age-dependent severe epilepsy syndrome, mainly treated with hormones and anti-seizure medications.However, due to poor efficacy and even serious side effects among some pediatric patients, searching for better alternative treatment options has become a research hotspot.In recent years, as a special diet treatment, ketogenic diet(KD)has been widely studied and gradually applied to the clinical treatment of IS, which has achieved satisfactory results.This article briefly reviews the KD regimen and mechanism of action, and focuses on the research progress in efficacy, safety and short-term prognosis of KD in the treatment of IS, whose purpose is to provide effective reference for clinical application.
