[Treatment of refractory infantile epilepsy with vigabatrin in a series of 55 patients].

We present the results of treatment with vigabatrin in the polytherapy of resistant infantile epilepsy. A retrospective review of 55 children with resistant epilepsy aged between 2 months and 15 years was carried out between January 1992 and January 1995. Semiologically, the crises treated were simple partial crises (CPS), complex partial crises (CPC), West's syndrome, the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and polymorphic crises.
