We report a case of graphogenic epilepsy as a variant of language-induced epilepsy. A 25-year-old, right-handed woman had noticed for the previous 10 years that writing almost always provoked jerks or a jerking sensation in her right hand. No other triggers, including facets of language function such as reading and speaking, elicited any epileptic seizures. Ictal EEG demonstrated an initial left central abnormality. In our report, we stress that graphogenic seizures as an expression of language-induced epilepsy should not be confused with those that are manifestations of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, and that writing and reading trigger different facets of motor manifestations.
我们报告一例作为语言诱发性癫痫变体的书写性癫痫病例。一名25岁右利手女性在过去10年中注意到,书写几乎总会诱发其右手出现抽搐或抽搐感。包括阅读和说话等语言功能方面在内的其他任何诱因均未引发癫痫发作。发作期脑电图显示最初为左侧中央区异常。在我们的报告中,我们强调,作为语言诱发性癫痫表现形式的书写性发作不应与青少年肌阵挛癫痫的表现相混淆,而且书写和阅读引发的是运动表现的不同方面。
