Polygraphy of night sleep performed in 31 children with temporal epilepsy showed enhanced nonspecific mesolimbic activation, probably of compensatory nature, in patients with common partial fits or complex partial fits. In wakeful patients with complex partial fits there were signs of growing influence of synchronizing inactivating non-specific structures.
