[Clinico-psychopathologic features of forms of local cortical epilepsy with the predominant lesion in the dominant, subdominant and both cerebral hemispheres].
The author studied 346 patients with different forms of epilepsy among whom 200 were subjected to different operations in relation to an extraction of the epileptogenic foci. The data are concerned with clinico-psychopahtological variants of focal cortical epilepsy with a focus in the temporal, parietal, frontal, occipital lobes and the central zone, a description of relatively characteristic prevalent lesions in the dominant and subdominant hemisphere. In 146 nonoperated patients the author describes some traits of epilepsy in bilateral lesions of the temporal and parietal lobes. It is considered that the most significant conclusion concerning the localization, subordination and lateralization of epileptogenic foci may be made on the basis of a manifold examination of the mental state of the patient. However, the most important are signs which definitely correspond to the specificity of the lateralization of the gnostical functions.
