An ictal EEG. (A) Rhythmic activities (2–2.5 Hz) originated in the right frontal area, with ipsilateral hemispheric spreading. (B) Right frontal rhythmic activities were superimposed by fast spikes that appeared in a quasiperiodic fashion at intervals of about 1 second, during which the patient presented significant dyscalculia. Background activities were slower in bilateral hemispheres. EEG = electroencephalogram.
