The term "frontal lobe syndrome" often refers to a clinical illness that develops as a consequence of injury to, and dysfunction in, the prefrontal cortex. The prefrontal cortex is a huge association region that is located inside the frontal lobe. The anterior cingulate, the lateral prefrontal cortex, the orbitofrontal cortex, and the frontal poles might be implicated in this issue. Damage to higher functioning functions in the brain, such as motivation, planning, social conduct, and language or speech production, are referred to together as frontal lobe syndrome. This syndrome is a wide phrase used to characterize the damage. In this activity, the etiology, pathophysiology, and presentation of frontal lobe syndrome are discussed. Additionally, the importance of the interprofessional team in the care of this condition is highlighted.
