Abstract

"We report a young man with congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome (CBPS), who showed eating reflex seizures (ERS). His ERS were related to the taste of foods. The subtracted ictal SPECT co-registered to MRI (SISCOM) revealed the hyperperfusion in the insula as well as the subcortical nuclei and brainstem. The ERS in CBPS may be par-tially related with the taste function of the insula and SISCOM may be helpful for the localization of the epileptogenic foci in ERS.Key Words : Eating reflex seizure, Congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome, Subtracted ictal SPECT coregistered to MRI"
