Children with epilepsy are at risk for developing learning problems. The poor academic achievement shown by children with epilepsy may result from the underlying cognitive deficits. The study of such problems reveals the implication of several factors that determine the nature and degree of the neuropsychological defects. Among the most frequently reported factors are epileptic factors such as age of onset, type of seizures, duration, localization of cerebral dysfunction, frequency, antiepileptic treatment, and etiology.
