An epileptic seizure originating within unilateral networks limited to the temporal lobe. Temporal lobe seizures are characterized by behavioral arrest and impaired awareness. There may be sensory (auditory), emotional (fear), cognitive (deja vu) or autonomic features (epigastric sensation, tachycardia, color change) in isolation or prior to onset of impaired awareness. Postictal confusion typically occurs.	Finding site	True	Temporal lobe structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
An epileptic seizure originating within unilateral networks limited to the lateral region of the temporal lobe. Lateral temporal lobe seizures typically begin with an auditory or vertiginous aura. The focal sensory auditory aura is usually a basic sound such as buzzing or ringing (rather than formed speech).	Finding site	True	Temporal lobe structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
An epileptic seizure originating within unilateral networks limited to the mesial area of the temporal lobe. These seizures may include an aura: autonomic (rising epigastric sensation, abdominal discomfort), cognitive (déjà vu/jamais vu), emotional (fear), or sensory (unpleasant olfactory and gustatory). The aura may occur in isolation or may be followed by behavioral arrest with slowly progressive impairment of awareness and oral (chewing, lip-smacking, swallowing, tongue movements) and manual automatisms. Autonomic phenomena (pallor, flushing, tachycardia) are common.	Finding site	True	Temporal lobe structure	Inferred relationship	Some	1
A type of temporal lobe epilepsy that presents typically between 10 and 30 years (range 0.5 to 54 years) with focal aware sensory auditory seizures and/or focal cognitive seizures with receptive aphasia. Auditory seizures typically consist of simple unformed sounds (e.g., humming, buzzing, or ringing), or less commonly auditory distortions (such as alteration in volume) or complex sounds (e.g., specific songs or voices). Cognitive seizures manifest as receptive aphasia, consisting of an inability to understand spoken language in the absence of an impairment of awareness. Focal impaired awareness and focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures may occur. Development and cognition are typically normal. Neurological examination is normal. The interictal EEG is normal but may have focal (usually temporal) sharp-and-wave or spikes, that can also be widespread. MRI is normal or shows focal cortical dysplasia.
