Benign Epilepsy of Children with Centrotemporal EEG Foci. A Study of Incidence Rate in Outpatient Care

SUMMARY The incidence rates of epileptic seizures and epileptic seizures with centre‐temporal (Ro‐landic) discharges were found to be 134/100,000 and 21/100,000, respectively. These were determined in an epidemiological study in a population consisting of 52,252 children aged 0–15 years in a county...
