Sensations of ocular movement in seizures originating in occipital lobe

ROBERT N. N. HOLTZMAN, M.D. and ELI S. GOLDENSOHN, M.D.

Departments of Neurosurgery and Neurobgy of the Neurological Institute of New Yolk.

Two patients with structural lesions had illusions of eye movement as the earliest manifestation of their seizures. One patient had a right occipitoparietal arteriovenous malformation and the other had a tentorial meningioma encroaching on the left occipital lobe. Symptoms were controlled by anticonvulsants and subsequent surgery in both cases. The characteristic feature of this rare form of seizure onset is a unilateral sensation of eye movement in the absence of oscillopsia.

Dr. Goldensohn's address is Neurological Institute, 710 West 168th Street, New Yolk, NY 10032.

Received for publication July 12, 1976.
