Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE/ECA) is a common idiopathic generalized epilepsy, accounts for 10% to 12% of epilepsy in children under 16 years of age. This condition begins in childhood with absences, which are brief episodes of loss of consciousness. It has been reported that mutations in several genes encoding subunits of the GABAA receptor are associated with this disease.
