7. Language in Benign Childhood Epilepsy with Centro-Temporal Spikes Abbreviated Form: Rolandic Epilepsy and Language

Author

Monjauze, C., Tuller, L., and Hommet, C.

Abstract

Although Benign Childhood Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (BECTS) has a good prognosis, a few studies have suggested the existence of language disorders relating to the interictal dysfunction of perisylvian language areas. In this study, we focused on language assessment in 16 children aged 6-15 currently affected by BECTS or in remission. An important proportion of children showed moderate or more severe language impairment. The most affected domains were expressive grammar and literacy skills. We found linguistic deficits during the course of epilepsy but also persistent deficits in children in remission, suggesting possible long-term effects. Our results support the hypothesis that BECTS may be associated with impairment to language and suggest the possibility of a direct link between epileptic activity and language development, and the existence of long-term consequences.

Abstract

The word agrypnia, ie, organic insomnia, was first used to describe a patient with a Morvan fibrillary chorea, which is an ill-delineated syndrome. This review considers the experimental insomnia created by raphe nuclei, anterior hypothalamic, or thalamic lesions. There are some papers reporting REM and non-REM sleep reduction in man after vascular, traumatic or degenerative lesion of the pons. There is only one case of agrypnia due to a bilateral stereotatic thalamic injury. Infectious agrypnia (trypanosomiasis, Von Economo) may exist but has not been documented by polygraphic means. Fatal familial insomnia induces a precocious agrypnia and leads to death with vegetative and motor disturbances. It is associated with an abnormal prion-protein which may interfere with gabaergic synapses. Finally agrypnia in humans corresponds to either lesionnal or infra microscopic synaptic prion linked disorders.
