摘要
We report three children of the same parents who exhibited various types of cognitive disorders, ranging from severe mental deficiency with transient autistic-like regression to specific neuropsychological disabilities, associated with paroxysmal EEG abnormalities with various patterns of severity. This familial association highly suggests a genetic factor responsible for both epileptic discharges on EEG and cognitive dysfunction.
