We describe a woman with intractable temporal lobe epilepsy secondary to dysgenesis of the left temporal lobe who had a marked and long-term exacerbation of her preexisting vocal tics after a temporal lobectomy that completely controlled her seizures. The patient was determined to have right-sided speech dominance by the Wada test. This is, to our knowledge, only the second reported case of exacerbation of tics after resection of the nondominant temporal lobe.
我们描述了一名患有左侧颞叶发育不全继发难治性颞叶癫痫的女性,她在接受颞叶切除术后,原本存在的发声抽动明显且长期加重,而该手术完全控制了她的癫痫发作。通过Wada试验确定该患者右侧为语言优势半球。据我们所知,这是第二例报告的非优势颞叶切除术后抽动加重的病例。
