Abstract

•Eleven out of 165 nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE) patients reported an auditory aura as initial ictal symptom.•Extra-frontal origin was documented in 55% of NFLE patients with auditory aura.•Six patients with defined epileptogenic zone had a left temporal origin of seizures.•Auditory aura may be a symptom suggesting an extra-frontal epileptogenic zone.
