title: Partial seizures of frontal and temporal origin.
abstract: The majority of medically refractory partial epilepsies arise in the frontal and temporal lobes and represent a major challenge to the neurologist. The phenomenology of seizures from these regions is diverse and fascinating, at times lying on the border of many medical specialties. An appreciation of the wealth of potential phenomena can lead to more accurate diagnosis and treatment.
