A member asked:
What does it mean if there's "focal cortical neuronal dysfunction" of the temporal lobe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Abnormal function: The term might refer to anatomical variation in one temporal lobe, but could also involve, epileptic activity due to focal pathology. Would urge full discussion with your neurologist, as this may correlate with your problems.
