An association between epilepsy and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) has been noted. The response of two patients with OCD and comorbid epilepsy to carbamazepine is reported. It is hypothesized that obsessive compulsive symptoms may be a variant of epileptiform forced thinking in a subgroup of patients, and may be preferentially responsive to anticonvulsant therapy.
人们已经注意到癫痫与强迫症（OCD）之间存在关联。本文报告了两名患有强迫症合并癫痫的患者对卡马西平的反应。据推测，在一部分患者中，强迫症状可能是癫痫样强迫思维的一种变体，并且可能对抗惊厥治疗有优先反应。
