Popis: The auditory brain-stem response (ABR) has been reported to detect abnormalities in both the auditory pathways and in adjacent structures. Ten of 35 consecutive patients with blepharospasm were found to have abnormal ABRs involving poor form and delayed peak latency of positive components III or V. Abnormal ABRs in approximately 30% of patients with essential blepharospasm suggest pathology in the brain-stem of a substantial proportion of patients with this form of cranial-cervical dystonia.
