Computed tomography of brains of epileptic children.

Abstract

1) Most of the intractable epileptic children showed abnormal EEG and abnormal CT findings. 2) The abnormal side of CT findings of focal epilepsy corresponded with the abnormal side of clinical manifestations and EEG findings. 3) CT findings of the brains of patients with infantile spasms exhibited cerebral cortical atrophy. 4) CT findings of the brains of the other epileptic types were not related to clinical manifestations or EEG findings.
