摘要：

A patient with a right thalamic oligodendroglioma developed seizures characterized by circling behavior, speech arrest, and secondarily generalized seizures. Gyratory epilepsy is relatively uncommon and may either represent a benign form of primary generalized epilepsy or occur secondary to a focal cortical lesion. Thalamic stimulation has been shown experimentally to induce circling movements, but no other clinical cases with a thalamic lesion have been described.
