Abstract:
Reading epilepsy, a form of reflex epilepsy or sensory precipitated epilesy, is known as the most frequent type of language induced epilepsy. Since Bickford presented 6 cases of reading epilepsy for the first time, about 50 cases of primary reading epilepsy have been reported. We present a case of primary reading epilepsy which is confirmed by clinical features and EEG, with a brief review of literature.
