This is a report of a 23-year-old-man with primary reading epilepsy. He had had three generalized tonic-clonic seizures, each time beginning with visual illusions and occurring while reading a political science text in English with complicated words. He also described tightness and stiffness in the jaw and musculature of mastication for the past 2 years, which only lasted for a few seconds and only appeared while reading political science books in English. He noted that this sensation was associated with misreading of foreign and difficult words and disappeared when he stopped reading. This case report supports the view that difficult words and misreading are provocative factors evoking seizures in reading epilepsy.
这是一篇关于一名23岁原发性阅读性癫痫男性患者的报告。他曾有过三次全身性强直阵挛发作，每次发作均始于视幻觉，且都是在阅读一篇含有复杂词汇的英文政治学文本时发生。他还描述称，在过去两年里，每当阅读英文政治学书籍时，下颌及咀嚼肌肉会出现紧绷和僵硬感，这种感觉仅持续数秒，且在停止阅读时消失。他指出，这种感觉与对外语及难词的误读有关。本病例报告支持这样一种观点，即难词和误读是诱发阅读性癫痫发作的激发因素。
