Temporal lobectomy: does it worsen or improve presurgical psychiatric disorders? -- Suicidality in epilepsy: does it share common pathogenic mechanisms with epilepsy? -- Psychotic disorders in epilepsy: do they differ from primary psychosis? -- Do neurobiologic aspects of primary psychiatric disorders account for the relatively high prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities in epilepsy? -- Are psychogenic non-epileptic seizures really the expression of a psychogenic process?
• Sommario/riassunto: Many people living with epilepsy also suffer from debilitating psychiatric and cognitive disorders. While these comorbidities have been recognized for centuries, their causation, and relationship to the epilepsy remains clouded in mystery. This volume highlights recent knowledge and findings as well as controversies in our current understanding of behavioral and psychiatric comorbidities of epilepsy.
