Abstrakt: |
Kleine-Levin syndrome (KLS) is manifested by periodic hypersomnolence with an increased appetite and psychopathological symptoms (psychomotor agitation, hallucinations, hypersexuality). The duration of the attack ranges from several days to several weeks. A forced awakening can provoke severe aggressive behavior. The disease occurs for an unknown reason, mainly in adolescence and mostly affects males. Lack of awareness among doctors about the disease leads to an incorrect diagnosis, often of a psychopathological disorder. This article presents modern data on the causes, clinical symptoms, diagnostic methods of KLS and provides a case of a 18 year-old man, whose disease manifested at the age of 16 years. |
