Gelastic seizure (GS) is a rare type of epilepsy that most commonly appears in patients with hypothalamic hamartoma. It is rarely associated with other types of brain damage. This particular type of epilepsy is relatively rare and has few links to other brain lesions. Temporal lobe malacia is mostly caused by cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage, which can lead to seizures. We report a case of GS in a woman with temporal lobe malacia which was reported for the first time in the literature.
