Abstract excerpt
The authors studied 3 generations of a family in which 4 members presented with classical grand mal epilepsy. The propositus and all his descendents were examined clinically and electroencephalographically. 19 markers were tested. The EEG criteria used are discussed. A relation between the different markers and the clinical and EEG presentation was studied using Morton's scores.
