This book details advanced knowledge on clinical and EEG aspects of Panayiotopoulos syndrome, that affects 6 percent of children with epileptic seizures and it is entirely benign. The clinical manifestations are mastery detailed. The spectrum of EEG with occipital and often extra-occipital spikes is richly illustrated as of an EEG atlas. Relations with Rolandic, other childhood seizure susceptibility syndromes and Gastaut type idiopathic occipital epilepsy are analytically studied. Panayiotopoulos syndrome is often misdiagnosed and treated as migraine. Means of avoiding misdiagnosis are emphasized. Panayiotopoulos makes this a reference book for specialists. He details the clinical and EEG manifestations, prevalence, pathophysiology and management of Panayiotopoulos syndrome as it emerged from his long-term prospective studies of the author and worldwide documentation through independent studies. He masterly describes the particular type of seizure associated with his syndrome, which rarely may also occur in symptomatic epilepsies of children. He expands on other ictal vomiting, autonomic and behavioural seizure manifestations.

Accurate diagnosis of the syndrome is therefore essential for both short- and long-term management. This clinical guide to epileptic syndromes and their treatment presents an expert and authoritative description of all syndromes in neonates, infants, children, teenagers, and adults.

Affecting 4 percent of children and 1-2 percent of the general population, epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. The 1st edition of this guide proved to be the only one of its kind, covering many important aspects of diagnosis and treatment. Due to the continued advances being made in the subject, and building on the sell-out success of the 1st edition this thorough revision reflects the latest report of the ILAE classification core group and the significant progress made in the diagnosis, classification and treatment of the epilepsies.
