Long-term follow-up of genetic generalized epilepsy with typical absence seizures and generalized paroxysmal fast activity in adulthood

Abstract

Introduction: Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA), a rhythmic EEG pattern of unknown significance was reported in a few patients with genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) presenting with typical absence seizures (TAS). Our aim was to report the long-term follow-up and genetic findings in GGE patients with TAS having GPFA in their EEG.
