    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Abbiamo studiato 11 bambini (7 maschi) che avevano spasmi infantili nello stesso episodio critico. L'età all'inizio degli spasmi variava da 6 giorni a 9 mesi. Tutti i bambini presentavano anormalità neurologiche o neuroradiologiche, e 5 avevano anche una familiarità epilettica. Abbiamo analizzato gli aspetti clinici e poligrafici dei cluster di spasmi associati a crisi parziali. Dieci di questi bambini vennero seguiti per un periodo medio di 3 anni e 4 mesi. All'ultima visita, le crisi hanno avuto sucessivamente un ritardo psicomotorio da lieve a grave. Questa condizione definisce un sottogruppo particolare, tra i bambini che presentano spasmi infantili, diverso dalla sindrome di West.
    Notes: Abstract We studied 11 infants (7 males) with combined infantile spasms (IS) and partial seizures. The age of onset of the spasms ranged from 6 days to 9 months. All of the children had neurological or CT/MRI abnormalities, and five also had a family history of epilepsy. The clinical and polygraphic patterns of the clusters of spasms combined with partial seizures were analysed. Ten infants were followed-up for a mean period of 3 years, 4 months (range 1 year 10 months to 4 years 11 months). At the last check-up, the seizures were controlled in 2 patients; the others continued to have spasms and/or partial seizures. All of the patients developed mild to severe pshychomotor retardation. This condition defines a subgroup of infants presenting with IS, which is distinct from West syndrome.
