Abstract
The authors describe clinical and electroencephalographic analysis of 23 cases of banign infantile epilepsy. The characteristic features of seizures, the clinical course, and the EEG findings with presence of spikes and/or spikes and slow waves in leads from the motor and midtemporal areas are discussed. Frequent influence of factors releasing the first and subsequent seizures and a history of risk factors during pregnancy, and perinatal period, and early acquired predisposition were demonstrated. Follow-up showed that seizures disappeared at the age of puberty. All observations suggest the possibility of separation of benign infantile epilepsy as a particular form of this disease.
