Abstract
|
|
|
|
Ictal swearing, as an epileptic manifestation, has rarely been reported. Despite its poor localization value and unclear mechanism, several previous studies have reported that it frequently originates from the temporal lobe and more often from the non-dominant hemisphere. Herein, we report a case of a 41-year-old right-handed man with a history of stereotypical manifestation of ictal swearing with a left (dominant) hemisphere origin, confirmed by video electroencephalography monitoring. Reasonable suspicion that repetitive swearing could be a manifestation of seizures is important for clinicians not to misdiagnose the disease.
