Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation

Sialidosis type I: How to alleviate disabling myoclonic seizures?—A multicenter analysis of eight cases and review of the literature

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sialidosis type I (ST‐1) is an autosomal‐recessive, very rare, progressive lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in NEU1. It is clinically characterized by progressive ataxia, myoclonic seizures (MS), bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (BTCS), and distinctive ophthalmological findings.
