Ictal sexual manifestations, like somatosensory genital phenomena, sexual emotions or sexual automatisms during a partial complex seizure, are very rare. So far the literature has above all described cases in adulthood. We report on a 6-year-old boy with partial complex epileptic seizures which led to confusion, oral and genital automatisms and the urge to urinate. During one epileptic seizure with these urogenital manifestations the EEG showed an epileptic rhythmic discharge over the left temporal region.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
