Vertigo, vestibular function and the effect of labyrinthine stimulation on the EEG were studied in 29 epileptic patients. Vertigo has no distinguishing characteristics and the epileptic nature of this symptom can be only tentatively inferred from its chronological relationship with the other epileptic features. In a high percentage of epileptic subjects, especially those with focal seizures, abnormal vestibular responses can be observed. This finding may be ascribed to the existence of a common cerebral lesion responsible for both focal seizures and vestibular abnormalities, even though the data do not allow us to exclude the role played by antiepileptic treatment in modifying the vestibular response. Caloric labyrinthine stimulation in the method employed by us shows a limited activating effect on the EEG and clinical epileptic pattern. Even in the positive cases this method does not allow us to reach any precise anatomo-physiological conclusions.
对29例癫痫患者的眩晕、前庭功能以及迷路刺激对脑电图的影响进行了研究。眩晕没有明显特征,只能根据其与其他癫痫特征的时间关系初步推断该症状的癫痫性质。在高比例的癫痫患者中,尤其是局灶性癫痫发作的患者,可观察到异常的前庭反应。这一发现可能归因于存在一个共同的脑部病变,该病变导致了局灶性癫痫发作和前庭异常,尽管这些数据不能让我们排除抗癫痫治疗在改变前庭反应中所起的作用。我们采用的冷热迷路刺激法对脑电图和临床癫痫模式显示出有限的激活作用。即使在阳性病例中,这种方法也不能让我们得出任何精确的解剖生理学结论。
