Musical ear syndrome (MES) is a condition seen in people who have hearing loss and subsequently develop auditory hallucinations. "MES" has also been associated with musical hallucinations , which is a complex form of auditory hallucinations where an individual may experience music or sounds that are heard without an external source.

In neuroanatomy, a sulcus (Latin: "furrow"; pl.: sulci) is a shallow depression or groove in the cerebral cortex. One or more sulci surround a gyrus (pl. gyri), a ridge on the surface of the cortex, creating the characteristic folded appearance of the brain in humans and most other mammals .
This is a list of major and frequently observed neurological disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), symptoms (e.g., back pain), signs (e.g., aphasia) and syndromes (e.g., Aicardi syndrome). There is disagreement over the definitions and criteria used to delineate various disorders and whether some of these conditions should be classified as ...

A sulcus is an inward fold, or valley in the brain's surface - for example the central sulcus. Additional terms used to describe these may include: Annectent gyrus, for a small gyrus hidden in the depth of a sulcus; sulcal fundus, for the bottom of a sulcus, an inward fold; A fissure is used to describe: A deep groove produced by opercularisation.
Geniculate ganglionitis or geniculate neuralgia (GN), also called nervus intermedius neuralgia, Ramsay Hunt syndrome, or Hunt's neuralgia, is a rare disorder characterized by severe paroxysmal neuralgic pain deep in the ear, [1] that may spread to the ear canal, outer ear, mastoid or eye regions.
It sits like an island (the meaning of insular) almost surrounded by the groove of the circular sulcus and covered over and obscured by the insular opercula. A part of the parietal lobe, the frontoparietal operculum, covers the upper part of the insular lobe from the front to the back. [ 2 ]
The foreshortening of the central sulcus has been found to be an abnormality associated with this syndrome. [14] This can be seen with the abnormal dorsal end of the central sulcus in individuals with Williams syndrome. [14] However, the abnormal dorsal end of the central sulcus has not been found to be linked to impaired general intelligence. [14]
