[Logopedic disorders in children with epilepsy].
Eighty five children with partial epilepsy were studied neuropsychologically, logopedically, neurologically and electrophysiologically. Speech function evaluation was conducted regarding age, mental retardation and severity of the underlying disease. It is shown that 53% children have logopedic disorders, in 35% cases these disorders were severe such as speech delay or general speech underdevelopment. Characteristics of the disorders correlated with severity of mental retardation of the child and the disease severity.
