Abstract
A right-handed man had recurrent episodes of speech arrest that were focal epileptic seizures. A metastatic adenocarcinoma was identified and removed from the left supplementary motor area. The similarity of these rare seizures to transient ischemic attacks may lead to an erroneous and hazardous misdiagnosis.Keywords
