“…The case reported by Taskin et al suggests a possible correlation between a previous treated herpes simplex virus (HSV)-1 encephalitis and CSWS [220], while that described by Hu et al suggests a possible involvement of onconeuronal antibodies in the pathogenesis of CSWS [221]. Dedeoglu et al, using brain MRI, found no significant difference regarding the corpus callosum thickness between children affected by SeLECTS with (N = 15) and without (N = 53) ESES [222].…”

In the context of childhood epilepsy, the concept of continuous spike–waves during slow sleep (CSWS) includes several childhood-onset heterogeneous conditions that share electroencephalograms (EEGs) characterized by a high frequency of paroxysmal abnormalities during sleep, which have negative effects on the cognitive development and behavior of the child. These negative effects may have the characteristics of a clear regression or of a slowdown in development. Seizures are very often present, but not constantly. The above makes it clear why CSWS have been included in epileptic encephalopathies, in which, by definition, frequent EEG paroxysmal abnormalities have an unfavorable impact on cognitive functions, including socio-communicative skills, causing autistic features, even regardless of the presence of clinically overt seizures. Although several decades have passed since the original descriptions of the electroclinical condition of CSWS, there are still many areas that are little-known and deserve to be further studied, including the EEG diagnostic criteria, the most effective electrophysiological parameter for monitoring the role of the thalamus in CSWS pathogenesis, its long-term evolution, the nosographic location of Landau–Kleffner syndrome, standardized neuropsychological and behavioral assessments, and pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies.

In the contest of childhood epilepsies, the concept of continuous spike-waves during slow sleep (CSWS) includes several childhood-onset heterogeneous conditions, sharing an electroencephalogram (EEG) characterized by a high frequency of paroxysmal abnormalities during sleep which are attributed negative effects on the cognitive development and behavior of the child. These negative effects may have the characteristics of a clear regression or of a slowdown in development. Seizures are very often present, but not constantly. The above makes it clear why CSWS have been included in epileptic encephalopathies, in which by definition the frequent EEG paroxysmal abnormalities have an unfavorable impact on the cognitive functions, including socio-communicative skills causing autistic features, even regardless of the presence of clinically overt seizures.
