We report 3 patients with medically intractable complex partial seizures (CPS) arising from the temporal lobe judged by surgical outcome, in whom scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) showed ictal epileptiform discharges at the frontopolar region. In all patients, results of cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and ictal single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) were consistent with those of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The epileptogenic area was defined in the temporal lobe by chronic subdural recording in 2 patients. After surgical treatment (amygdalohippocampectomy, anterior temporal lobectomy, and temporal lesionectomy, respectively), all 3 patients became seizure-free and the interictal frontopolar epileptiform discharges on scalp EEG disappeared. Patients with TLE may show ictal scalp EEG with frontopolar onset. This is most likely explained by direction of dipolar orientation of epileptiform discharges in 1 of our patients; rapid spread of ictal activity to the frontopolar area can also be considered in the 2.
