ABSTRACT
The interaction between sleep and epilepsy is complex. A better understanding of the mechanisms linking sleep and epilepsy appears increasingly important as it may improve diagnosis and therapeutic strategies in patients with epilepsy. In this narrative review, we aim to (i) provide an overview of the physiological and pathophysiological processes linking sleep and epilepsy; (ii) present common sleep disorders in patients with epilepsy; (iii) discuss how sleep and sleep disorders should be considered in new therapeutic approaches to epilepsy such as neurostimulation; and (iv) present the overall nocturnal manifestations and differential diagnosis between epileptic seizures and parasomnia.
