BaudanzaThe most common serious neurological condition in the world with a commonness of one percent of the population is epilepsy. Epilepsy mostly occurs in children and the elderly, although there are many methods of management twenty-five percent of the children diagnosed still suffer from uncontrolled seizures. A treatment option that has been used since 1921 is the Ketogenic diet (KD). An analysis formed from nineteen studies, with over a thousand eighty-four pediatric patients tested was completed in 1998 by Blue Cross Blue Shield. Overall the end results of the diet in pediatric epileptic patients was, sixteen percent became seizure free, thirty two percent had a ninety percent reduction in seizures and fifty six percent had half as many seizures as before. The diet is high in fat, moderate in protein, and low in carbohydrates. In order for this diet to be affective, the person must have self-control and be obedient of the diet.

• Exogenous LP (ELP) is associated with the aspiration or inhalation of oil present in food, oil-based medications or radiographic contrast media. The clinical manifestations of LP range from asymptomatic cases to severe pulmonary involvement, with respiratory failure and death, according to the quantity and duration of the aspiration. The diagnosis of exogenous lipoid pneumonia is based on a history of exposure to oil and the presence of lipid-laden macrophages on sputum or bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) analysis. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is the imaging technique of choice for evaluation of patients with suspected LP. The best therapeutic strategy is to remove the oil as early as possible through bronchoscopy with multiple BALs and interruption in the use of mineral oil. Steroid therapy remains controversial, and should be reserved for severe cases. We describe a case of LP due to oil aspiration in 3-year-old girl with intractable epilepsy on ketogenic diet. Diagnostic problems were due to non-specific symptoms that were mimicing serious infectious pneumonia. A high index of suspicion and precise medical history is required in cases of refractory pneumonia and fever unresponsive to conventional therapy. Gastroesophageal reflux and a risk of aspiration may be regarded as relative contraindications to the ketogenic diet. Conservative treatment, based on the use of oral steroids, proved to be an efficient therapeutic approach in this case.

Summary The ketogenic diet is a medically
supervised, high-fat, low-carbohydrate, and moderate-protein diet, which has been successful in patients with refractory epilepsy. Epilepsy is a disorder of abnormal brain activity and the major sign is recurrent seizures. This diet has helped significantly reduce and even removed seizures from the individuals. The studies involving the care of epilepsy using the ketogenic diet has been surprisingly responsive. The fat in the diet is not yet known exactly why this greatly reduces the seizures and abnormal brain activity among individuals.

ADEQUACY: The Ketogenic Diet for Epilepsy requires people on a ketogenic diet have to eat mostly fatty foods, such as butter, cream, and peanut butter. BALANCE: This diet highly stresses a balance between Foods such as bread, pasta, fruits, and vegetables have to be severely limited. And the person's total calories and fluids are also restricted. At every meal, the food has to be measured carefully so that the right amounts of each food are given. Even a slight departure from the diet can cancel its effect.
Consensus
Consensus The ketogenic diet is a special high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that helps to
control seizures in some people with epilepsy. It is prescribed by a physician and carefully monitored by a dietitian. It is more strict, with calorie, fluid, and protein measurement and occasional restriction than the modified Atkins diet, which is also used today. Several studies have shown that the ketogenic diet does reduce or prevent seizures in many children whose seizures could not be controlled by medications. Over half of children who go on the diet have at least a 50% reduction in the number of their seizures. Some children, usually 10-15%, even become seizure-free. The name ketogenic means that it produces ketones in the body (keto = ketone, genic = producing). Ketones are formed when the body uses fat for its source of energy. Usually the body usually uses carbohydrates (such as sugar, bread, pasta) for its fuel, but because the ketogenic diet is very low in carbohydrates, fats become the primary fuel instead. Ketones are one of the more likely mechanisms of action of the diet; with higher ketone levels often leading to improved seizure control. However, there are many other theories for why the diet will work.
