Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To elucidate the presenting symptoms of Lafora Disease (LD) to differentiate it from Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME). METHODS: We collected and evaluated the early electroclinical data of 5 unrelated Apulian (Southern Italy) LD families, 30 LD patients selected from the literature, and 30 Apulian JME patients. RESULTS: The Apulian LD patients presented with generalised tonic-clonic and focal visual...
