Unilateral 14 and 6 Hz positive bursts.
We describe the unilateral occurrence of 14 and 6 Hz positive bursts in successive EEGs in a 25-year-old woman following surgical resection of a left parietal arteriovenous malformation which had caused a left parieto-temporal intracerebral hematoma. This is only the second reported case of unilateral 14 and 6 Hz positive bursts. This could represent either a normal pattern seen unilaterally because of a skull defect or be a manifestation of neuronal damage.
