Abstract

SCN2A sodium channel gene was analyzed in 2 families with probable benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures (BFNISs), 9 with possible BFNIS, 10 with benign familial infantile seizures, and in 93 additional families with various early childhood epilepsies, in a study at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and other international centers.
