- Abstract
- We experienced a patient with an orgasmic aura originating from the right mesial temporal structure. A 36-year-old right-handed woman suffered from a specific sensation of sexual arousal and orgasm-like euphoria lasting 1~2 minutes for several years. Video EEG monitoring ascertained those sensations as epileptic in nature arising from the right mesial temporal area through a foramen ovale electrode. The findings of 99mTc-ECD-SPECT and 18F-FDG PET were concordant with those of the brain MRI which was pathologically consistent with hippocampal sclerosis. KeyWords:Orgasm, Foramen Ovale, Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
