Ketogenic diet therapy is not a uniform intervention. Its application, tolerability, and efficacy profile vary across pediatric epilepsy syndromes including infantile spasms, Dravet syndrome, and Angelman syndrome, each presenting distinct clinical challenges that influence dietary management decisions.
Expert clinical perspectives from international ketogenic diet specialists examine how KDT performs across these complex presentations, where it delivers meaningful seizure reduction, and what clinical considerations guide implementation across diverse syndrome profiles. This collection bridges the gap between guideline recommendations and real-world specialist practice.

Drug-resistant epilepsy is defined by failure to achieve sustained seizure control following adequate trials of two or more tolerated anti-seizure medications. In pediatric populations, uncontrolled seizures carry compounding consequences including long-term cognitive decline, impaired psychomotor development, and significant family burden.
For patients where surgery and neurostimulation are not appropriate, ketogenic diet therapy provides a clinically validated pathway. International guidelines recommend its consideration after failure of two to three drugs, with demonstrated efficacy across syndromes including infantile spasms, Dravet syndrome, and Angelman syndrome.
