Summary:
A young man of 19 who underwent surgical excision of a
small right posterior cingulate gyrus cystic lesion for complex
partial seizure. Postoperatively he developed intractable
hyperacusis and persisted for several days. Here we report the
case of post operative intractable hyperacusis that developed
after surgery in posterior cingulate gyrus and in the literature
probably this is the first report of hyperacusis related to posterior
cingulate gyrus surgery.
Key Words: Posterior cingulate gyrus lesion, Complex partial
seizure, Hyperacusis.
