Continuous spikes and waves during slow sleep (CSWS): outcome in adulthood. Hommet, C., Billard, C., Barthez, M. A., Gillet, P., Perrier, D., Lucas, B., de Toffol, B., & Autret, A. Epileptic Disorders: International Epilepsy Journal with Videotape, 2(2):107--112, June, 2000.
abstract   bibtex   
We report a longitudinal, electroencephalographic and neuropsychological analysis of epilepsy with continuous spikes and waves during slow sleep (CSWS) in a 19 year-old boy. The clinical course fluctuated, with temporary worsening or improvement of the paroxysmal abnormalities, epilepsy and cognitive functions. At the end of the follow-up period, seizures persisted. Evaluation of the boy's behaviour, language and cognitive function suggested a dysexecutive syndrome. We discuss the relationship between paroxysmal abnormalities and neuropsychological disorders.
