Abstract
Myoclonus is a manifestation of many neurological diseases, by differing in etiology and pathogenesis. The high prevalence of myoclonus in children with cardinally different prognoses of diseases of not only the nervous system, but also other organs and systems causes to resume investigations into myoclonus as a syndrome, to specify its terminology and classification, to improve diagnostic criteria, and to optimize additional diagnostic schemes.
