Resumo: We studied four children with diagnosis of absence seizures (generalized primary epilepsy), and with a generalized delta activity on the EEG during clinical attacks provoked by hyperventilation. The lack of ictal generalized spike-and-wave discharges with a frequency of 3 Hz in our patients, makes this an atypical pattern. All children had complete control of their seizures and disappearance of the EEG changes with valproate. We concluded that generalized delta activity observed on EEG during the hyperventilation in children should not always be considered as a normal finding for age, since it could be an ictal event of an absence seizure.

A ausência de descargas generalizadas por complexos ponta-onda a 3 Hz, durante as crises de nossos pacientes, é achado incomum. Todas as crianças tiveram completo controle de suas crises com o valproato, assim como o desaparecimento das alterações no EEG. Concluimos que a atividade delta generalizada observada no EEG de crianças durante a hiperpnéia nem sempre deve ser vista como achado normal, podendo ser um evento crítico da crise generalizada ausência.Escola Paulista de Medicina Head of the EEG SectorUNIFESP, EPM, Head of the EEG SectorSciELOAcademia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEUROUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Silva, Délrio F.
