Abstract
We present a patient with drug-resistant frontal lobe epilepsy who underwent successful surgery with resection of Broca's area, primarily involving the pars triangularis (BA 45). We report transient expressive aphasia followed by recovery of speech. This case provides new insights into adult neuroplasticity of the language network.
