Laughing seizures were first described by Trousseau (Trousseau 1877). Gowers observed emotions "with a cheerful character" as part of a seizure (Gowers 1881). Since then, ictal laughing or gelastic seizures has been described in different epileptic conditions associated with the temporal or frontal lobes. Gelastic seizures have been described most often in association with hypothalamic hamartomas.
