title: Ictal PET in Ohtahara Syndrome With Hemimegalencephaly.
abstract: Ohtahara syndrome is one of the causes of infantile epilepsies, which presents with refractory seizures and characteristic EEG changes. It is often associated with structural anomalies in the brain. We report a case of 5-month-old girl with Ohtahara syndrome with hemimegalencephaly who presented with refractory seizures and ictal FDG PET/CT helped in localizing the seizure focus.
