A pilot study on benign partial epilepsy in children with complex partial seizures

Abstract

In a review of 145 children with partial onset epilepsy, the authors were able to determine a focus of children whose complex partial seizures (CPS) ran a benign course, who had no identifiable lesion on scanning and whose EEG focus was not fixed, but tended to shift. The authors suggest that a benign form of CPS in children can be recognised. © 2001 BEA Trading Ltd.
