title: [The EEG and its correlation with the intermittent vertebrobasilar syndrome].
abstract: A total of 325 patients with an intermittent vertebrobasilar insufficiency syndrome were subjected to electroencephalography. Certain characteristic features could be determined. Dominant among pathological findings were beta wave frequency bands in females. Normal electroencephalograms were obtained especially in males. There was frequently observed a low level of brain potentials, but this should not be regarded as an obligate criterion. Correlation of the electroencephalogram with the clinical syndrome was only possible by taking into account the patient's medical history and by taking additional diagnostic measures, more especially as other processes in the middle and posterior cranial fossae also tended to produce corresponding changes in electroencephalograms. Also dealth with by the author in his present paper are pathophysiological relationships.
