title: Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy: a case associated with hemimegalencephaly.
abstract: The authors report a case of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE) associated with hemimegalencephaly. The etiological factors in previously published cases of EIEE are reviewed and attention is focused on the high proportion of cases associated with neuronal migration disorders. We suggest that idiopathic cases of EIEE would be due to such disorders.
