Lafora's disease is a form of progressive myoclonic epilepsy characterized by seizures, myoclonus and dementia. We present the case of a 12-year-old girl who is complaining of epilepsy and myoclonic jerks starting a year ago, with deterioration of school performance, and abnormal EEG. The axillary skin biopsy showed PAS-positive inclusions in the cells of sweat glands, typical of Lafora's disease.
