Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry

Background:

  • Auditory hallucinations can arise from focal brain lesions.
  • Temporal lobe epilepsy and injury are known causes of psychiatric symptoms.

Observation:

  • A patient developed auditory hallucinations after surgical resection of the right superficial middle and inferior temporal gyri.
  • The patient experienced significant symptom relief with Carbamazepine at 800 mg daily.

Findings:

  • Surgical removal of specific right temporal gyri was associated with the onset of auditory hallucinations.
  • Carbamazepine demonstrated efficacy in managing these post-surgical auditory hallucinations.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the link between specific brain regions and complex auditory processing.
