Sumario:BACKGROUND: Dancing is a very rare seizure semiology, and has only few case reports so far. Moreover, no case regarded as dancing with both description and video was presented. CASE PRESENTATION: A 42-year-old woman with medical intractable epilepsy showed a typical semiology of right temporal lobe epilepsy: right hand automatism and ictal speech. The following semiology, appeared during ictal and post-ictal stage, was complex, rhythmical and sequential movement. It was enough to be called dancing. CONCLUSIONS: We hereby report the most plausible dancing in the ictal and post-ictal state, documented by simultaneous video and electroencephalography.
