    Abstract:
    A neurological examination of 120 patients with malignant newgrowths of a different localization and histological structure was conducted. Neurological changes due to lesions of the central and peripheral nervous systems were revealed. With the aid of EEG studies and subsequent clinico-EEG correlations 29 patients were examined. The conclusion is made that EEG studies of malformations in children allow to detect subclinical forms of brain lesions. In most of the cases there was an inadequacy between the slightly expressed cerebral symptomatology and crude changes of the EEG. The changed EEG was especially marked in primary cancer of the liver, also with normalization of the EEG in the development of positive dynamics of the main disease. The studies conducted indicate the significance of EEG in receiving thorough characteristics of the neurological changes in malignant tumors.
