Summary

Excerpted from the GeneReview: Autosomal Dominant Epilepsy with Auditory Features
Autosomal dominant epilepsy with auditory features (ADEAF) is a focal epilepsy syndrome with auditory symptoms and/or receptive aphasia as prominent ictal manifestations. The most common auditory symptoms are simple unformed sounds including humming, buzzing, or ringing; less common forms are distortions (e.g., volume changes) or complex sounds (e.g., specific songs or voices). Ictal receptive aphasia consists of a sudden onset of inability to understand language in the absence of general confusion. Less commonly, other ictal symptoms may occur, including sensory symptoms (visual, olfactory, vertiginous, or cephalic) or motor, psychic, and autonomic symptoms. Age at onset is usually in adolescence or early adulthood (age 10-30 years). The clinical course of ADEAF is benign. Seizures are usually well controlled after initiation of medical therapy.
