Motor cortical seizures of frontal lobe epilepsy

Motor cortical seizures of frontal lobe epilepsy: Motor cortical epilepsy is mainly characterized by a simple partial seizure, and its location is based on the local anatomy of the affected side and the affected area. In the lower pre-Rolando area, speech may stop and sound may occur. Or speech disorders, lateral tonic-clonic movements or swallowing movements, and generalized seizures often occur. In the lateral fissure area, part of the motor episode is not accompanied by progressive or Jacksonian episodes; especially on the contralateral upper limb. When the lateral central lobules are involved, there is an ankylosing motion of the ipsilateral foot, and sometimes an ankylosing motion of the contralateral leg. Todd paralysis is common after the attack. Seizures originate precisely in the motor cortex, which has a lower threshold for seizures and can spread to a wider area of ​​seizures.
