Landau-Kleffner Syndrome
The following physicians specialize in the diagnosis, care and treatment of patients suffering from Landau-Kleffner Syndrome.
Epileptic Aphasia, otherwise known as Landau-Kleffner Syndrome (LKS), is a rare neurological disorder characterized by the sudden or gradual development of the inability to understand or express language (aphasia) coupled with an abnormal electroencephalogram (EEG). LKS affects the parts of the brain that control speech and comprehension. The disorder is difficult to diagnosis and may be confused with more common disorders such as autism and other learning disabilities.
