Panayiotopoulos syndrome and Gastaut syndrome are distinct entities in terms of neuropsychological findings.

CONCLUSION: Using neuropsychological profiles, this study demonstrated that the GS and the PS are two distinct entities. Cognitive dysfunction is a more prominent and widespread feature of the patients with PS; whereas, the patients with GS suffer only from milder and isolated cognitive problems.
