[Monosynaptic spinal reflex in epilepsy].
In 33 patients with generalized convulsive seizures a monosynaptic spinal reflex was studied. In an interattack period the author observed its clear asymmetry which was combined with a contralateral situation of epileptogenic focus on the EEG. In the majority of cases in patients with diffusive paroxysmal activity on the EEG asymmetry in the quantity of H-reflex was marked as well. The obtained data permit to recommend a study of H-reflex in an interattack period of epilepsy for specification of the topics of an epileptogenic focus.
