Landau-Kleffner Syndrome: A syndrome characterized by the onset of isolated language dysfunction in otherwise normal children (age of onset 4-7 years) and epileptiform discharges on ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY. Seizures, including atypical absence (EPILEPSY, ABSENCE), complex partial (EPILEPSY, COMPLEX PARTIAL), and other types may occur. The electroencephalographic abnormalities and seizures tend to resolve by puberty. The language disorder may also resolve although some individuals are left with severe language dysfunction, including APHASIA and auditory AGNOSIA. (From Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, pp749-50; J Child Neurol 1997 Nov;12(8):489-495).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Epileptic seizures are often not the main problem in atypical rolandic epilepsies like CSWS or LKS and the amelioration of cognitive dysfunction by epileptic discharge is the prominent aim of an AED therapy."2.41Treatment in typical and atypical rolandic epilepsy. ( Rating, D, 2000)
"The laboratory hallmark of BCECTS is the rolandic discharge (RD) in the EEG of patients, occurring in a characteristic topographical, vigilance-related, event-related, and age-related pattern, disappearing during puberty."1.33The spectrum from BCECTS to LKS: The Rolandic EEG trait-impact on cognition.
