Polysomnographical researches in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.
One hundred and twelve patients with temporal lobe epilepsy were studied. Continuous polysomnographical recordings were performed for eight hours, the patients being video-monitored all the time. These researches, completed with computerized EEG cortical mappings demonstrated a peculiar activation of the temporal foci during REM phases and during some stages of LSWS.
