Abstract

Epilepsy is one of the most common disorders in childhood. Neuropsychological disorders are encountered more in the epileptic population than the general population. Underlying neuropathologies, ictal-interictal neuronal discharges and antiepileptic drugs are main conditions that cause neuropsychological pathology. In this study, the neuropsychological effects of different epilepsy types were evaluated. One hundred three epileptic children (idiopathic children 56, symptomatic epileptic children 47) who take monotherapy and have seizures in the moderate range were included in this study. The WISC-R scores were compared on the basis of seizure type (symptomatic, idiopathic) and sex (girls, boys). The scores for the Coding subtest were higher in idiopathic epileptic children than symptomatic epileptic children. Scores for Information and Similarities subtests of boys were found to be higher than that of girls. The scores for Similarities and Performance IQ of idiopathic epileptic girls were found to be higher than those of symptomatic epileptic girls. These findings showed that the neuropsychological effects of different types of epilepsy types are different.

Özet

Epilepsi çocukluk çağında sık görülen kronik hastalıklardan birisidir. Epilepsi olan bireylerde nöropsikolojik bozukluklar genel popülasyondan daha fazla görülmektedir. Altta yatan nöropatolojiler, iktal-interiktal nöronal deşarjlar ve antiepileptik ilaçlar bu bozukluklara neden olan başlıca durumlardır. Bu çalışmada, farklı epilepsi türlerinin zeka üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Çalışmaya monoterapi alan ve orta sıklıkta nöbet geçiren 103 epileptik çocuk (idiopatik epilepsili 56 ve semptomatik epilepsili 47) dahil edilmiştir. Epileptik çocukların Wechsler Çocuklar İçin Zeka Ölçeği Geliştirilmiş Formu'ndan (WISC-R) aldıkları puanlar nöbet türü ve cinsiyet açısından karşılaştırmıştır. İdiyopatik epilepsili çocukların semptomatik epilepsili çocuklardan Şifre alttestinden daha yüksek puan aldıkları, erkek çocukların WISC-R'nin Genel Bilgi ve Benzerlikler alttestlerinden kızlardan daha yüksek puanlar aldıkları belirlenmiştir. İdiopatik epilepsili kız hastaların semptomatik epilepsili kız hastalardan Benzerlikler alttesti ve Performans Zeka Bölümü'nden anlamlı düzeyde yüksek puan aldıkları saptandı. Bu bulgular farklı epilepsi türlerinin nöropsikolojik etkilerinin de farklı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur.
