A 14-year-old right-handed girl presented with intractable epilepsy originating from the primary sensory area of the hand, manifesting as sensory partial seizures in the left hand with secondary generalization. Neurological examination showed no abnormal findings. Magnetic resonance imaging, magnetoencephalography, and cortical stimulation using chronic subdural electrodes demonstrated a lesion located in the primary sensory cortex of the hand, in which the ictal onset zone was identified by 24-hour intracranial electroencephalographic recording. Surgical resection of the lesion and multiple subpial transections of the adjacent cortices were performed. The histological diagnosis was dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNT). She was completely free of seizures without permanent sensory deficits postoperatively. DNT located in the primary sensory hand area may be resectable without causing postoperative sensory deficits, if accurate functional mapping and surgical resection are performed.
