Abstract

An example of an aphasic syndrome peculiar to children was described. This syndrome, previously described by several authors, was characterized by an unusual form of aphasia, association with epileptic attacks and onset in the absence of any apparent etiology. In such cases, the effectiveness of anti-epileptic treatment on the aphasia was variable, often quite poor; in this case administration of anti-epileptic treatment was followed by spectacular regression of the aphasia.
