Abstract

Ictal crying has been associated with ictal activities in the medial frontal or medial temporal area of the nondominant hemisphere. We applied current-source analysis to the interictal spikes of a patient with episodes of ictal crying without sad feelings, but fear sensation. The current sources were in the medial frontal area of both cerebral hemispheres, the temporal area and the posterior cingulate gyrus of the right hemisphere.
