The authors report a family in which the mother and her one son had typical eipsodes of flaccid muscular paralysis with raised serum potassium level during the episode. In the period between these episodes only myotonia was observed. Histological examinations and EMG confirmed the diagnosis. Myotonia was present in two other siblings.
