Abstract
Benign myoclonus of early infancy (BMEI) is a non epileptic
paroxystic disorder unknown in our pediatric population. We
analyze the clinical characteristics in two patients with BMEI,
and emphasize their differential diagnosis in four groups:
encephalopathies with a non epileptic myoclonus, myoclonus
without encephalopathy and without epilepsy, epileptic
encephalopathies with myoclonus seizures and myoclonic epilepsy
without encephalopathy. We consider to the BMEI as an
autolimited, age-dependent, non epileptic paroxystic disorder
without encephalopathy with onset in the early infancy. This
study could be useful in order to identify the BMEI and avoid
the incorrect use of antiepileptic drugs in our patients.
