title: Anterior zygomatic electrodes: a special electrode for the study of temporal lobe epilepsy.
abstract: The position of a surface electrode over the anterior zygomatic arch is described. Epileptiform activity recorded at this position is compared with that recorded by sphenoidal electrodes in 21 cases of temporal lobe epilepsy. In 100% of the cases abnormalities were detected with both electrodes, although in 11% of the cases the findings could not be definitely described as epileptiform in the anterior zygomatic electrodes.
