Electroencephalographic cranial computerized tomographic correlations in brain abscess.
The authors studied 19 cases of brain abscess. The investigation included one or more EEG records from 13 patients and one or more cranial computerized tomograms in all cases. In this work the two techniques were associated to establish the diagnosis of cerebral abscess. The EEG is almost always abnormal and pronounced EEG disturbances are, in most cases, sufficient for indicating a diagnosis of a space-occupying process. On the other hand, EEG patterns suggestive of brain abscess were detected in only 38% of the patients. In brain abscess, CCT is of considerable value since the existence of 'suppurative' images was demonstrated in all cases and of these, 70% were characteristic. The association of these two techniques is thus extremely useful in the diagnosis of cerebral abscess, to follow its evolution and to detect postoperative relapse or to evaluate the efficiency of medical management alone.
