Oral automatism (OA) and manual automatism (MA) are common signs during initiation of temporal seizures. However, the precise symptomatogenic zones for OA and MA remains largely unclear. In this study, we presented a case of intractable frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) in which the patient received intracranial EEG monitoring with subdural electrodes. During electrical stimulation of a grid contact located over the right pars opercularis cortex, OA and contralateral MA were observed unexpectedly without afterdischarges (ADs) or with brief ADs detected in the adjacent contacts. This case suggested that the pars opercularis cortex might play an important role in generating OA. In addition, our data implied that the symptomatogenic zone for MA might locate contralaterally to symptomatic hand.
