Two brothers with clinically definite adult Huntington's disease developed disabling myoclonus years after the first signs of the disease. Their electroencephalograms were consistent with a primary generalized epilepsy, although neither man had seizures. The myoclonus was controlled with valproic acid therapy.
两名临床确诊为成年型亨廷顿舞蹈症的兄弟在出现该病的最初症状数年之后出现了致残性肌阵挛。他们的脑电图与原发性全身性癫痫相符,尽管两人均未发生癫痫发作。肌阵挛通过丙戊酸治疗得到了控制。
