The Electroencephalogram (EEG), is an important diagnostic and clinical tool for evaluating patients with epilepsy [1]. The analysis of EEG requires sound knowledge and astute observation to identify physiologic changes and differentiate epileptiform discharges from benign epileptiform variants (BEVs). These variants are diversely termed ‘epileptiform activity in the EEG of non-epileptic patients’[2], ‘non-epileptogenic epileptiform electroencephalographic activity’[3], and ‘benign epileptiform variants’[4,5].
