Helen A2 - Arzimanoglou, Alexis Y1 - 2017 N1 - T2 - Pediatric Epilepsy AB - Generalized tonic–clonic seizures (GTCS) or "grand-mal seizures" are easily recognizable and their selective occurrence during early morning in some patients has been identified for many years (Gowers, 1885). Epilepsy with GTCS on awakening (EGTCSA) was identified early as part of idiopathic generalized epilepsy (Janz, 1953),1 and abundant literature is available for review (Wolf, 2002). In contrast, little attention has been dedicated to the epilepsies with GTCS occurring during sleep or at random.
