| Popis: | Reports are presented of two sisters, thirteen and eleven, whose clinical examination reveals the classically described picture of Spielmeyer-Vogt disease, or as the author would suggest, “Pigmentary Retinal Lipoidal Heredodeneration”. Detailed serial electroencephalographic studies reveal significant changes, particularly after ACTH administration. Though clinically the parents and younger sisters are entirely normal, the EEGs of the siblings are not and would strongly indicate that their further close observation would be necessary. |
