Brief Answer:
Long term prognosis is good.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted the clinical details of the child. The child had a single unprovoked seizure. With normal EEG and MRI brain and in the absence of family history of epilepsy, the risk of seizure recurrence is very low.

Please get back if you have any follow-up queries.

Best wishes,

Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM
