Benign Epilepsy
Benign epilepsy is characterized as two or more unprovoked seizures. The different kinds of epilepsy differ in several aspects such as the age of the patient, semiology, EEG findings as well as outcome. In the late 80’s Freeman et all reported that many children with tonic-clonic seizures do have benign developmental disorder which reduces their threshold for seizure and can outgrow this condition. As you know, it is a disorder that has been known as benign childhood epilepsy and believed to be secondary to CNS immaturity.
