title: [A case of deep sleep myoclonus in newborn infants].
abstract: The authors report on the case of a newborn infant without pathological history suffering from severe and lasting myoclonus occurring during deep sleep and associated with normal electroencephalogram. Deep sleep myoclonus is a benign syndrome which disappears spontaneously within a few months. The long-term prognosis is excellent, but the etiology remains unknown.
