[Tele-electrosubcorticogram study of reactions to vestibular stimulation in neurosurgical clinical practice].

In connection with stereotactic examinations and operations, mainly in certain forms of epilepsy, the electro-subcorticogram under, vestibular stimulations was recorded by telemetry. The amount of informat ion obtained was analysed by electronic data processing. A number of vegetative parameters and the electro-oculogram could be recorded at the same time. Regular bioelectric reaction of the desynchronisation type or of the oscillation depression type were found. In the presence of focal or generalised convulsions, a weakening of the epileptic discharges were observed under labyrinthine stimulation. Also the sense of rotation leads to special influences. The method is also of importance for the postoperative phase as it represents an adaptation of the requirements of modern living conditions (acute accelerations, breaking and changes in direction). Finally, information about the dominance of interfocal relations can also be obtained.
