We report a patient wherein the onset of OCD occurred after resection of meningioma of the right frontal lobe and who was treated successfully with paroxetine hydrochloride. We suggest that the onset of secondary (organic) OCD is associated with the frontal lobe, and we propose that the origin...
Objectives We sought to present the anatomic landmarks and surgical technique of the frontal lobe decortication (FLD) in epilepsy. The goals were to maximize the gray matter removal, spare primary and supplementary motor areas, and preserve the frontal horn. Material and Methods The anatomic ...
This review summarized roles of the frontal lobe in encoding and retrieval of episodic memory, access to semantic memory, and working memory on the basis of lesion and neuroimaging studies. Left prefrontal cortex is more activated in successful encoding of episodic memory, whereas bilateral frontal ...
Moreover, as it evolved, it appears to have contributed to the evolution of the medial frontal neocortex (which is also involved in vocalization), as well as the lateral frontal neocortex including Broca's area and the emotional-melodic speech area in the right frontal lobe with which it main...
56 had a tumor located in the right frontal lobe. Five out of the eight had subjective complaints, including tiredness, altered attention, and irritability. Our results are perfectly in line with this study, as fatigability, distractibility and irritability were reported by 20, 30 and 15% ...

The tumor size was 7cm x 7cm x 6 cm. The optic disc was atrophic in both eyes. Partial removal of the tumor, about 1/2 to 2/3 in volume, was performed in two stages in both cases. The corrected visual acuity after surgery was 50 cm finger counting right and 0.01 left in the ...
