- Abstract
- The myoclonic epilepsies of infancy and early childhood pose the most difficult problems in the diagnosis and classification of epilepsies because they are often confused with the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome sharing a number of common features. However, their correct differentiation is easily justifiable because some of the myoclonic epilepsies of early childhood have better prognosis than the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. We experienced and treated a 4-year-old boy who had normal intellectual function but frequent myoclonic and generalized clinic-tonic-clinic seizures, which were successfully controlled by anti-epileptic drugs. Hence we report a case with brief review of literatures.
