[Rolandic paroxysmal epilepsy. Prognostic, electric, clinical limits. Study of 28 cases (author's transl)].
Rolandic paroxysmal epilepsy remains a frequent eventuality in children and even more so than the "minor epilepsy". In more cases, it is easily diagnosed and enables the physician to reassure the family which is usually frightened by the word "epilepsy". Both complementary examinations and therapeutic excesses can also be reduced. In a number of cases, the diagnosis may be questionable. It seems that the features of certain crises, the post-critical deficit, the massive anomalies in post-critical electroencephalogram, the reactivation of the crises during puberty are as many factors liable to moderate a too securising optimism both for the physician and the patient.
