AB  - Over a period of time, the authors have studied a case of subacute sclerosing 
      panencephalitis (SSPE), by means of brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs). 
      The observed abnormalities of the conduction time along the early auditory 
      pathways appeared to be related to the clinical picture; in fact, during periods 
      of transitory clinical improvement these abnormalities were less evident. In 
      addition, the encountered electrophysiological alterations consisted of a marked 
      pathologic increase in the III-V interpeak latencies. The authors suggest that 
      the BAEPs findings in their case could have been influenced by either 
      unfavourable endogenous conditions (edema, electrolyte changes, etc.) or CNS 
      segmental lesions due to focal viral distribution.
