High rates of early remission pattern in adult-onset compared with earlier-onset idiopathic generalized epilepsy: a long-term follow-up study

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is a common form of epilepsy accounting for almost 20% of patients attending epilepsy outpatient clinics.[1] Four distinct IGE syndromes have been recognized by the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE). These syndromes present with consistent clinical overlap and share genetic causative factors, suggesting a common pathophysiological background.[2]
