Abstract
We report a family with complex febrile seizures (FS). The proband is a 15-year-old boy with seizures that persisted beyond 6 years of age. His father, aunt, and cousin also have the histories of FS until 8, 9, and 8 years old, respectively. A base substitution 5569G â T of voltage-gated sodium channel α-1 subunit gene was found in DNA derived from the affected members of this family.
