[Epileptic seizures in young patients with hypodense lesions in the CT image].

Progress in neurodiagnostic medical technology, and in computer tomography in particular, has raised fresh problems in connection with epilepsy. Among our patients we have observed three case of epilepsy, in whom the CT image unexpectedly revealed hypodense lesions of various sizes in the cerebrum. The three are young patients aged 20 to 25 years with negative neurological findings. The above changes in the CT image are extremely difficult to interpret. It is not even know whether the lesions must be considered the cause or a consequence of the epileptic seizures or whether the pathomorphological processes are basically identical or completely different in all three patients.

[The value of stapedius reflex examinations in patients with myasthenia gravis (author's transl)].

The behavior of the stapedius reflex was examined by means of the Z0-70 Madsen electroacoustic bridge in 41 patients (aged 9-73) with myasthenia gravis. A higher stapedius reflex threshold (90-130 db) at normal hearing was found in 66% of the cases. In 46.3% of the cases, an increased fatigue of the stapedius muscle was observed, as characterized by the lowering of the amplitude or the disappearance of the reflex after several successively repeated recordings. The examination of stapedius muscle fatigqu may be helpful indiagnosing early forms of myasthenia, in following the results of therapy for the disease, as well as in assessing the efficiency of antimyasthenic drugs.

[Fatigability of stapedius muscle in myasthenia].

The fatiguability of m. stupedius was studied in 20 patients with myasthenia and 16 controls determining the reflex of this muscle by means of electroacoustic bridge. In half of the patients group the fatiguability of stapedius muscle was increased and in some cases the reflex threshold of the muscle was raised. The authors suggest continuation of these investigations especially for determination of the clinical importance of these observations.
