摘要: Summary: In the pediatric age period, three idiopathic partial epileptic syndromes are recognized: benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes, occipital paroxysms, and primary reading epilepsy. All other epilepsies considered cryptogenic, no have been recognized. We observed 10 children tonic postural seizures, mainly hypnic, coinciding a recognizable ictal epileptiform EEG pattern. The all had normal neuropsychological development before after seizure onset. seizures were tractable in all. Onset was early period; type of occurrence family history high. pattern typical supplementary motor area origin. Because status, high familial incidence epilepsy, course this we believe it should be idiopathic, using criteria International Classification Epilepsies Epileptic Syndromes. therefore suggest existence syndrome having onset frontal lobe
