Clinical Presentation In FPEVF, affected family members may present with different types of partial epilepsy, which are, however, invariable within each subject. [neupsykey.com]

Some patients can present an aura previous to the seizure or show automatisms (unconscious behaviors) during the seizures, which can take place both during wakefulness or at night. There is often secondary generalization of the seizures. [amplexa.com]

• Aura

  Many patients have an aura and show automatisms during the seizures, whereas others may have nocturnal seizures. There is often secondary generalization. [genecards.org]

  Frontal lobe seizures are the most frequent manifestation, but they have a different pattern in FPEVF as compared to that observed in ADNFLE ( Table 1 ): The seizures are less frequent, clusters and auras are rare, and daytime seizures as well as secondarily [neupsykey.com]
