Abstract

We report an 11-year-old girl with Turner syndrome with 45, X/46, X, mar (X) who had mental retardation. EEG showed remarkable provocation of paroxysmal activity by photic stimulation. Diffuse irregular poly-spike and wave bursts were elicited by photic stimuli, without accompanying by clinical seizure.
