What are the symptoms of temporal lobe epilepsy?

  Temporal lobe epilepsy is a seizure that originates only in the temporal lobe. Temporal lobe epilepsy is divided into medial temporal lobe epilepsy and lateral temporal lobe epilepsy, with medial temporal lobe epilepsy being the most common. The clinical manifestations are: most of the seizures are preceded by aura, or even only aura seizures. Common aura include: rising stomach gas feeling, panic, fear, seeing the surroundings become very familiar (déjà vu feeling) or unfamiliar (strange feeling). This is followed by dazedness and inability to respond to calls.  It can be accompanied by hand autism, such as groping and grasping of one hand, or both hands; oropharyngeal autism: including swallowing movements, drooling, etc. The whole process is usually quiet and lasts less than 1 minute.  After the onset of the attack, sleepiness is often present. A small number of patients can have secondary grand mal seizures (collapse, loss of consciousness, and twitching of the limbs). The symptoms of extratemporal lobe epilepsy are similar, with auditory aura predominating among the aura.  The diagnosis of temporal lobe epilepsy requires EEG, MRI, PET, etc. in addition to symptomatological features for clarity.
