Abstract

In this study, we investigated three female patients given a diagnosis of temporal lobe epilepsy preceded by depression. It is notable that all the patients complained of abnormal sensations, either in the throat or oral. The depression in the three patients showed no improvement with antidepressants, but carbamazepine was effective for both epileptic seizures and depression. EEG should be performed on patients who develop antidepressant treatment-refractory depression accompanied by hypochondriacal complaints.
