Abstract

Epilepsy is one of the most common disorders encountered in pediatric neurology. A well-trained child neurologist should have an understanding of the neurobiological causes of seizures, classification of seizures and epilepsy, etiologic evaluation, and treatment of both seizures and associated comorbid conditions. Electroencephalography (EEG) is an important diagnostic test in epilepsy, and child neurologists should be knowledgeable in the physiological basis of EEG and how to identify normal and abnormal patterns in neonates and children.
