摘要：

Three cases of myoclonic epilepsy presenting in adolescence are described. Seizures were uninfluenced by treatment with carbamazepine. Substitution of sodium valproate in early adult life resulted in all becoming seizure-free. A high degree of clinical awareness is required in making the correct diagnosis and in choosing appropriate therapy for this form of epilepsy which can present with generalised tonic-clonic or partial seizures.
