Description	A type of epilepsy that presents with typical absence seizures between 9 and 13 years of age in an otherwise normal adolescent. The typical absence seizures usually occur less than daily in the untreated state and are provoked by hyperventilation in 87 percent of cases. Generalised tonic-clonic seizures are seen in greater than 90 percent of cases, most commonly beginning shortly after onset of absence seizures. Myoclonic seizures do not occur. Development and cognition are typically normal. Neurological examination is normal. The electroencephalogram shows 3 to 5.5 Hz generalised spike-wave with a normal background.
