Pre‐surgical assessment and surgical management of frontal epilepsy with normal MRI is often challenging. We present a case of a 33‐year‐old, right‐handed, educated male. During childhood, his seizures presented with mandibular myoclonus and no particular trigger. As a young adult, he developed seizures with a startle component, triggered by unexpected noises. During his ictal episodes, he felt fear and grimaced with sudden head flexion and tonic axial posturing. Similar seizures also occurred without startle. Neuropsychological assessment showed executive dysfunction and verbal memory deficit. The cerebral MRI was normal. Electro‐clinical reasoning, investigations performed, the results obtained and follow‐up are discussed in detail. [Published with video sequence]
