Schaaf‐Yang syndrome (SYS) is a rare hereditary disease caused by truncating point mutations of the paternal allele of melanoma antigen L2 (MAGEL2), one of five protein‐coding genes within the Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) critical domain. SYS shares many clinical and molecular characteristics with PWS but has some distinct features, such as joint contractures and autism. Patients with PWS show abnormal electroencephalography (EEG) patterns. However, there are very few reports on EEG findings in patients with SYS.
