岛叶皮质位于侧裂深处，有丰富的联系。我们描述了两名来自该区域的局灶性癫痫患者，他们在意识清醒时有窒息和绞窄的症状。临床医生应该意识到这种不寻常的表现，并且发作间期脑电图可能是正常的。
The insular cortex is located deep within the Sylvian fissure, and has rich connections. We describe two patients with focal epilepsy arising from this area, with symptoms of choking and strangulation during consciousness. Clinicians should be aware of this unusual presentation and that interictal electroencephalography can be normal.
