Diseases

Landau-Kleffner Syndrome

A disorder with seizures starting in childhood in which the patient loses skills, such as speech, and develops behavior characteristic of autism.

SYMPTOMS

The landau–kleffner syndrome is characterized by the sudden or gradual development of aphasia (the inability to understand or express language) and an abnormal electroencephalogram 

CAUSES

Most cases of lks do not have a known cause. Occasionally, the condition may be induced secondary to other diagnoses, such as low-grade brain tumors, closed-head injuries, neurocysticercosis, and demyelinating disease. Central nervous system vasculitis may be associated with this condition as well.
