  • Title: [Psychiatric syndromes in epilepsy. Case contribution].
    Author: de Romanis F, Arzilli S, Pisani R.
    Journal: Riv Neurol; 1983; 53(5):326-52. PubMed ID: 6420874.
    Abstract:
    The Authors have taken into consideration the psychiatric disorders during epilepsy and subdivide them in: behavioural disorders, epileptic deterioration, Petit Mal status and epileptic psychoses. Epileptic psychoses have been divided in: episodic (confusional and disthymic) and chronic (syndromes where ideation troubles and schizophrenic syndromes prevail). On the basis of a nosographic approach the Authors consider the possibility to relate the latter to epilepsy, while for others the association of two diseases has probably taken place. The Authors agree with the assumption that the epileptic psychosis is the result of a multifactorial activity finally resulting in a real disorder at the level of the temporo-limbic structures, such activity is not always revealed by surface EEG.
