[Oculomotor disorders in the clinical picture of bacterial meningoencephalitis].

The clinical study comprising 254 patients with bacterial meningoencephalitis (meningococcal, pneumococcal, staphylococcal, undefined, with n = 135, 76, 43, 120 respectively) permitted identifying a syndrome of oculomotor disturbances. It has been shown that assessment of changes in oculomotor disturbances enables the extent of inflammatory process, focal lesion as well as course and outcome of bacterial meningoencephalitis to be determined in a timely fashion.
