Mental disorders in patients with epilepsy

Abstract: Zaburzenia psychiczne występują u chorych na padaczkę znamiennie częściej niż w populacji ogólnej, a także niż w przebiegu innych przewlekłych schorzeń. Współistnieniu tych zaburzeń sprzyja specyfika padaczki jako schorzenia ośrodkowego układu nerwowego ze złożonymi następstwami somatycznymi, psychicznymi i społecznymi.

“…Our study determined a frequency of psychiatric comorbidities of 67.1%, and we estimate that this increase accompanies the global trend of mental disorders in recent years, in addition to the low level of schooling found in our casuistry, or that it represents a risk factor for or development of mental disorders. Unlike the reports in the literature, 5,18 we found a higher statistically significant number of psychiatric comorbidities in controlled patients. This result could represent the bias due to the predominance of controlled patients in our series, and forced normalization, which is characterized by the appearance of psychiatric symptoms after controlling for epileptic seizures, cannot be ruled out.…”

“…Two of the most common neuropsychiatric comorbidities of epilepsy are depression and anxiety [ 108 ]. Both depression and anxiety have higher incidents in PWE than in the general population [ 7 , 109 ]. The active prevalence of depression in PWE is thought to be 15–50%, with a lifetime history of depressive disorders found in more than 30% of patients.…”

“…Additionally, in approximately 0.5% of patients with epilepsy, depressive disorders may be evoked by the use of certain antiepileptic drugs [ 7 ]. Current antidepressants may also not be as effective, with some even aggravating seizures [ 124 ].…”
