Description	A type of epilepsy that presents with myoclonic epileptic seizures between 4 months and 3 years of age, in an otherwise normal infant. The myoclonic epileptic seizures may be activated by sudden noise, startle, or touch, and less commonly by photic stimulation. The electroencephalogram must capture generalised epileptiform discharges or myoclonic epileptic seizures and have a normal background.
