Explore objects with your mouth

Klüver-Bucy syndrome (KBS) has a reported incidence of up to 70%, which is a behavioral abnormality related to temporal lobe function, similar to that of KBS in animals with bilateral temporal lobe resection. For example, visual cognition cannot, and cannot recognize the face of a loved one or the self in the mirror. Exploring objects with your mouth (oral exploratory syndrome) can also be manifested as compulsive chewing gum or smoking, and touching with your hands, touching objects in front of you, excessive appetite, and eating casually. In 1939, neuropathologists Klüver and Bucy produced an experimental animal model of a bitemporal lobe resection monkey. Observed abnormal mental behavior changes in the monkey and described a group of symptoms in the bitemporal lobe defect animal, called Klüver-Bucy syndrome (Klüver-Bucy syndrome, KBS) [1]. In 1975, Marlowe et al. [2] reported for the first time that KBS appeared in humans after suffering from herpes simplex encephalitis.
