To describe chronological electrographic features of the interictal EEG background observed in two patients with MMPEI from neonatal to early infantile period. EEGs of two patients who fulfilled diagnostic criteria for MMPEI were acquired over the period of 6 months to monitor treatment efficacy and characterize seizures and other paroxysmal events. Both patients followed a similar sequential pattern. A distinctive evolution from a dysmature term neonatal EEG pattern to an asynchronous suppression burst pattern was observed prior to the interictal background becoming continuous. Physicians providing care to infants with intractable epilepsy and burst suppression EEG pattern should be alert to the possibility of MMPEI. An earlier diagnosis of MMPEI would help guide diagnostic workup including genetic testing.
