This is a report about the case of a 37-year-old female with left temporal damage due to a cerebral infarction and showing periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges (PLEDs). A hypsarhythmia-like pattern was observed a week after the onset. A repeat tracing of EEGs taken two weeks after the onset clarified the presence of PLEDs, consisting of a lateralized slow spike discharge in a rhythmic fashion at a frequency of every 1.6 seconds. PLEDs disappeared two months after the onset, and EEG activity normalized three months after the onset. But, her regressive behavior, crying before her doctor, which was considered to be due to a personality change, persisted for some years.
