Extractions: Med.Sci 532 Structure-Function Klüver-Bucy Syndrome This syndrome has only really been seen in experimental monkeys. If part of the temporal lobes are removed the monkey cannot recognize objects (visual agnosia). These monkeys exhibit bizarre oral behaviors such as sticking things in their mouths that normal monkeys would have nothing to do with. They also become hyperactive and hypersexual making physical contact with almost anything in their environment. Wild, fearful and aggressive monkeys become tame and showed no fear when handled by humans or presented with snakes which rhesus monkeys normally avoid.

Extractions: in partnership with Read the full article with a Free Trial of HighBeam Research To the Editor: Salim et al's (1) classification of their patient with a minor head injury as a case of Kluver-Bucy syndrome is open to question. Admittedly, their patient exhibited emotional blunting, excessive eating, and hypersexual behavior, three of the six essential features of Kluver-Bucy syndrome outlined by Lilly et a1 (2) in their landmark study. Nevertheless, this patient's overeating is qualitatively different from the human Kluver-Bucy syndrome, which typically yields a visual agnosia with oral exploration of the environment and the attendant ingestion of inedibles.

Extractions: in partnership with Read the full article with a Free Trial of HighBeam Research ABSTRACT Kluver-Bucy syndrome (KBS) has been described as a disconnection of the temporal lobes from the remainder of the brain. Its presence in minor head trauma has not been previously reported. We therefore report what we believe to be the first case of KBS due to mild head trauma and unilateral injury to a temporal lobe. KLUVER-BUCY SYNDROME (KBS) has been described as a disconnection of the temporal lobes from the rest of the brain. Findings include blunted affect, bulimia, hypersexuality, and aggressive behavior.

Help Jha, Sanjeev and Patel, R. Kluver- Bucy syndrome - An experience with six cases Neurology India pp. 369-371 Full text available as: PDF - Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader or other PDF viewer. The Kluver-Bucy syndrome (KBS) is a neurobehavioral syndrome and can be seen in association with a variety of neurological disorders. Case records of 6 patients with KBS seen during a period of 5 years in a university hospital were reviewed. During the study period 6 patients with KBS, aged between 4 and 14 years, were seen. Hyperorality, hypersexuality, and abnormal behavior were the most common manifestations. Of the 6 patients, 5 had recurrent unprovoked seizures. The associated neurological disorders included anoxia-ischemic encephalopthy (2), herpes simplex encephalitis (1), neurocysticercosis (NCC) (1), traumatic brain injury with gliosis (1 case) and tuberculous meningitis (1 case). Prognosis was poor in all the patients except in the patient with NCC.

A 52-year-old woman, whose initial psychiatric presentation at the age of 15 was with a disorder resembling schizophrenia, developed symptoms of Kluver-Bucy syndrome, and is now thought to suffer from an organic psychotic disorder. Kluver-Bucy syndrome must be distinguished from symptoms of schizophrenia or affective disorder; its presence suggests an organic process.

The dog had an initial seizure at 2 years of age, and a subsequent seizure frequency of 1-3 times per month. At 1 month after the initial seizure, the dog was subjected to physical, hematological (CBC and serum chemistry), and neurological examinations, as well as computed tomography and serum canine distemper virus (CDV) antibody titer another veterinary hospital. These examinations showed normal findings, and a tentative diagnosis of idiopathic epilepsy
Extractions: To the Editor: I and my coauthors thank Dr. Olson for his thoughtful letter (1) about our study. (2) As he so aptly put it, our patient exhibited three of the key diagnostic features of the Kluver-Bucy syndrome. With regard to outbursts of irritation, their presence does not exclude the diagnosis of this syndrome. The patient's behavior was rather passive most of the time, and her affect was blunted. Nowhere in our case report did we state that she developed aggressive behaviors. There were no frontal lesions shown on computed tomographic (CT) scans of the head, which we obtained twice. Similarly, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) disclosed no lesions. I certainly think that these three rounds of imaging would have revealed any frontal lobe lesions. My coauthors and I asked our colleagues in neurology to review the case once again, and they agreed with the original diagnosis. Therefore, we stand by our diagnosis and description of this case.
