  • Title: [Acoustically evoked brain stem potential in Wilson disease].
    Author: Krause T, Pankau WP, Wagner A, Lössner J.
    Journal: Psychiatr Neurol Med Psychol (Leipz); 1984 Sep; 36(9):545-50. PubMed ID: 6514866.
    Abstract:
    By 48 patients with Wilson's disease the brainstem acoustic evoked potentials were stated. There were 35 pathological findings (73%), 13 were normal (27%). The waves, determined by the middle and upper brainstem (Pons and Mesencephalon) showed most of all pathological changes. Those patients with forms of Wilson's disease called Pseudoskelerose and Pseudoparkinson showed the most pathological findings. But one could watch these findings by about 30% of patients in preclinical stage. This method can possibly be used for early detection of disorders of brainstem functions and in the same way it can be used for control of treatment by patients in preclinical stage.
