[Epileptic headaches (author's transl)].
The author describes three observations characterized by the following similar features: 1. Children, between 2 and 9 years, suffering from attacks of sterotyped headaches. 2. EEG with bursts of high- voltage paroxysmal discharges, mainly during hyperventilation. 3. Efficiency of antiepileptic drugs contrary to antimigrainous treatment. These headaches are considered by the author as "epileptic", and this diagnosis is discussed.
