Abstract
An 18 year old boy suffering from episodic sleep disorders triggered by fever was studied in the sleep laboratory. An episode was recorded, starting in slow wave sleep. The diurnal sleep record showed the presence of benign epileptiform transients of sleep. The treatment with diazepam was successful. The relationships with disorders of arousal and epilepsy are discussed.
