DOI: 10.1111/epi.17430
Abstract: Cortical tremor/myoclonus is the hallmark feature of benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy (BAFME), the mechanism of which remains elusive. A hypothesis is that a defective control in the preexisting cerebellar‐motor loop drives cortical tremor. Meanwhile,… read more here.
