Popis: The brainstem function of eight children with familial dysautonomia was investigated by brainstem auditory evoked potentials and compared with that of age-matched healthy control children. All median latencies of waves III and V in the study group were significantly higher than those of the control children. Brain transmission times of waves I-III and I-V were significantly prolonged in the study group compared with the control group. These results provide additional objective support for the assumption that the brainstem function of children with familial dysautonomia is affected by this disease.
