Pediatric Neurology , 10/14/09
Ay Y et al. – All children underwent standardized neuropsychologic testing, including the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children–Revised subtests, Bender Gestalt Test, Stroop Test, Visual Aural Digit Span, Reading and Writing Performance, and Dichotic Listening Test. Patients exhibited significantly impaired visuomotor and reading ability and attention to verbal stimuli compared with control subjects. Reading disability persisted in patients in remission from seizures and epileptic discharges. Contrary to the presumed benign nature of rolandic epilepsy, this disorder may cause learning disabilities. Therefore, patients must be followed longitudinally to identify any learning problems.
