    Author: Polychronopoulos P, Argyriou AA, Papapetropoulos S, Gourzis P, Rigas G, Chroni E.
    Journal: Epilepsy Behav; 2006 Mar; 8(2):438-41. PubMed ID: 16461012.
    Abstract:
    Cases with a clinical and electroencephalographic phenotype of benign epilepsy of childhood with centrotemporal spikes (BECTS) in association with a proven organic brain lesion have rarely been reported. To our knowledge, we herein describe for the first time a patient with Wilson's disease who subsequently manifested BECTS. Our case bolsters the argument that in at least some cases, BECTS is associated with organic brain disease.
