Breack of contact, verbal automatisms (repeats unintelligible sounds) and sensation of postictal sikness. RMI increase of signal (FLAIR) in both hippocampus, impressing right atrophy. EEG-video with profund electrodes implanted start of the crisis on a right mesial temporal level. Case 3 female patient, 21 years old. Antecedents of complex partial crisis since 12 years old. Complex partial crisis with bimanual and oroalimentary automatisms with an episode of generalization. RMI and EEG-video injury compatible with right ETM.
