Excerpt

An 11-year-old male patient presented after having sustained a seizure after sleep deprivation. The seizure was characterized by a prodromal phase with fixed gaze, loss of consciousness, and tonic-clonic contractions of the extremities. There were no neurological deficits in the clinical examination. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the central nervous system showed a right mesiotemporal lesion. A temporal craniotomy was performed with the patient under general anesthesia. The tumor was reached and removed through a subtemporal approach. The appearance of the tumor was grayish and firm. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course with no new neurological deficits. The postoperative MRI showed no residual tumor. …
