A healthy 7-year-old boy developed a language disorder associated with clinical seizures and a paroxysmal EEG. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a small cysticercus deep in the left Sylvian fissure. We postulate a cause and effect relationship between the parasitic cyst and the clinical manifestations supported by the strategic location of the cyst and the critical age at which this lesion developed. This case provides evidence that the syndrome of acquired epileptic aphasia may be explained in terms of an unilateral structural brain lesion.
一名健康的7岁男孩出现了与临床癫痫发作和阵发性脑电图相关的语言障碍。计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像显示，在左侧大脑外侧裂深处有一个小囊尾蚴。我们推测寄生囊肿与临床表现之间存在因果关系，囊肿的位置以及该病变发生时的关键年龄支持了这一推测。该病例提供了证据，表明获得性癫痫性失语综合征可能可以用单侧脑结构性病变来解释。
