New-onset musicogenic epilepsy after temporal lobe epilepsy surgery

Aleksa T Pejović et al. Epileptic Disord. .

Abstract

Musicogenic epilepsy is a reflex epilepsy provoked by listening to or playing music. The epileptogenic network involves temporal regions, usually mesiotemporal structures. We present a 31-year-old female patient who experienced musicogenic seizures after a right temporal lobectomy with amygdalohippocampectomy that was performed in order to treat preexisting right mesio-temporal epilepsy.

Keywords: epilepsy surgery; musicogenic seizures; reflex epilepsy; temporal lobe resection.
