Popis: | To evaluate possible cause-effect relationships between hyperostosis frontalis interna and cognitive dysfunction, we performed a neurophysiological (event-related potentials, ERPs) and neuropsychological study in a case of Morgagni-Stewart-Morel (MSM) syndrome associated with frontal lobe compression. Neuropsychological evaluation evidenced selective impairment of executive function. Visual and auditory oddball ERPs revealed delayed P300 latency and reduced auditory P300 amplitude with multi-peaked morphology. ERP abnormalities and cognitive dysfunction could be due to the frontal bone-cortex conflict documented by neuroradiological investigations. |
