Usually the onset is between the ages of three and seven years, with skills being lost over days or weeks. The temporal association between the onset of seizures and loss of language is variable, with one preceding the other (either way round) by a few months to two years. An inflammatory encephalitic process ha ...[+++]s been suggested as a possible cause of this disorder. About two-thirds of patients are left with a more or less severe receptive language deficit.
