In this case series, we have identified an atypical pattern of OIRDA (Occipital intermittent rhythmic delta activity) on the electroencephalograms (EEGs) of three pediatric patients with self-limited focal epilepsies, including Childhood Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (CECTS), and Panayiotopoulos syndrome (PS). Previously, OIRDA was described as a symmetric sinusoidal occipital-maximal activity, often associated with childhood idiopathic generalized epilepsies, although it was also reported among other physiologic or pathological entities including focal epilepsy. We have observed in our case series that OIRDA, without prominent field effect, is lateralized or maximal on the hemispheric side ipsilateral to the more defining epileptiform discharges in these focal epilepsies. They also exhibit a notched morphology due to the intermixed sharp wave activities, although the sharp waves are not occurring repetitively. This report provides additional evidence that OIRDA can be associated with a spectrum of idiopathic focal epilepsies and may suggest a cortical origin of OIRDA in these patients as opposed to a hypothesized subcortical generator in patients with primary generalized absence epilepsy, even though further investigation is warranted for either hypothesis.
