Introduction: A transient occurrence of signs and symptoms brought on by excessive abnormal neuronal or synchronous activity in the brain is known as an epileptic seizure. By way of onset, seizures can be classified as focal, generalized, unknown, or unclassifiable. An underlying structural abnormality can cause focal seizures in the brain. Among these, the temporal lobe is the most prevalent, but there may be alterations in the frontal, occipital, and parietal lobes. The objective of this case report is to contribute to the knowledge of the multiple symptoms of patients with parietal lobe seizures. Case Report: The report is about parietal aura, diagnosed in the patient J.F.R., a 45-year-old male, and reported his first seizure in 2017. The patient said the increasing onset of the condition leads to significant body image disorders (the representation of the child during eye contact is similar to that of a monster). A limb or a body side may also appear heavier, more significant, absent, or separate from the rest of the body. The postictal period was slow, and full consciousness and correct body image emerged insidiously. Conclusion: In the evaluation, it is essential to value not only the main complaint but also the entire psychic context, cognitive function, and interpersonal and social relationships since these aspects can affect the quality of life of these patients and their integration into the social environment. |
