Clinical note: clinical and tele-stereo-EEG findings in a patient with psychomotor seizures.
A patient was studied who had posttraumatic epilepsy with adversive, psychomotor, and grand mal seizures. During tele-EEG recording from depth electrodes, 4 psychomotor seizures were accompanied by discharge originating in the frontal lobe. The patient sometimes could recall his behavior and believed it to be voluntary. Amnesia was more apt to be total after the seizure than during it.
