Abstract:
The authors report the results of an electroclinical and tomographic study of 145 cases of partial epilepsy in children. Without advancing any views on etiology or symptomatologic classification, they analyse the various prognoses on the basis of case history, clinical aspects, symptomatology of seizures, EEG and tomographic signs. None of these factors in isolation appears to determine the prognosis of epilepsy. A significant percentage of apparently idiopathic epilepsies may develop adversely whereas half of the cases show a good prognosis.
