Cloned-like repetitive multifocal spike-wave complexes in two children with Panayiotopoulos syndrome

Consider carefully the EEG of these two cases. Cloned-like repetitive multifocal spike-wave complexes practically constitute electrical status epilepticus. However, these two children were otherwise normal; their academic performance was excellent and certainly above average, and they only had a few autonomic seizures or autonomic status epilepticus.
