| Popis: |
The case of one 23 year-old girl who had epileptic manifestations is reported. At first, generalized tonic seizures; afterwards, epileptic seizures precipitated by eating. The electroencephalograms showed left temporal lobe dysfunctions. Different types of drugs were used with no success. The best results were obtained by association of sodium valproate, clonazepam and phenobarbital. Comments are made about clinic and etiopathogenesis, believing the authors in the hypothesis of nervous structures chronic hyperactivity. To Walker the hyperactivity was reached by hormones production under neural control of specific cerebral centers. The continuous bombardment of epileptic discharges to hypothalamic centers is the probably responsible by epileptic seizures precipitated by eating. |
