Abstract:
Behavioral epileptic seizures (BES) are a unique type of seizure that can be presented with or without the classic limb movements of epilepsy. This type of seizure is commonly associated with the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. Symptoms consist of anxiety, smiling, crying, fear, aggression, irritability, and change in awareness or activity. We report a case of unusual seizure presentation of jerky movements followed by intense fear and crying caused by a right parietal cavernous malformation with chronic bleeding.
