  • Title: Partial motor epilepsy with "negative myoclonus".
    Author: Cirignotta F, Lugaresi E.
    Journal: Epilepsia; 1991; 32(1):54-8. PubMed ID: 1898721.
    Abstract:
    Three children had both nocturnal unilateral motor seizures and daytime ipsilateral "negative myoclonus" which occurred so frequently that it resembled asterixis. Neurophysiologic studies demonstrated lateralized spike discharges that were time-locked to postural lapse in the contralateral outstretched arm. The clinical course was characterized by good seizure control with benzodiazepines.
