A 3-year-old boy with a history of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) presented a single focal tonic seizure. A thorough physical examination revealed no neurological deficit. A contrast enhanced MRI showed an isointense lesion in the anterior part of the cingulate gyrus extending through the left frontal lobe. After initial evaluation, the parents refused surgical treatment and a close follow up was then considered. At the age of five, the ADHD become more evident and the patient was started on methylphenidate. Poor clinical response was seen with the initiation of stimulant. The boy presented a second generalized seizure and the parents agreed surgical management. An interhemispheric approach was then performed and a gross total resection was achieved. The histopathological diagnosis corresponded to a dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNET). Four years after the resection, the patient is seizure free and the ADHD has also resolved without the need of medication. The disappearance of seizures is common after surgical resection of DNET tumors, but this case establishes an association with ADHD.
