EPILEPSY, ABSENCES AND STUTTERING AS HYPOTHETICALLY EPILEPTIC PHENOMENON
In a brief lecture based on an analysis of publisheddata and on author’s own clinical experience, the pathogenesisof epilepsy is considered in the terms of N.Ph. Tendeloo’scausalism theory, as a result of pathogenic constellation of local activity of epileptic focus and systemic seizure readiness of an organism. Due to that stuttering phenomenon is interpreted asa disorder of epileptic genesis associated with particular formof absences. On this basis, a new pathogenetic method of treatment for stuttering patients is proposed and tested practically with application of antiepileptic anti-absence drugs (bibliography -33 refs).
