Epileptic encephalopathies are severe epilepsy disorders with strong genetic bases. We performed targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) in 70 patients epileptic encephalopathies. The likely pathogenicity of variants candidate genes was evaluated by American College Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) scoring taken together the accepted clinical presentation. Thirty-three were detected after population filtration computational prediction. According to ACMG, 21 variants, including 18 de...
