[CT in children with epilepsy. The value of cerebral CT in children with epilepsy].
In a retrospective material of 66 children with epilepsy, computed tomographic scanning had been undertaken in 30 cases. Abnormal computed tomographic findings were observed in five children in the form of cerebral tumour or sequelae of head injuries or perinatal asphyxia. All five children had focal EEG changes but none of these as the only positive finding. The investigation had therapeutic consequences in one case only, viz the case where computed tomographic scanning confirmed the clinical suspicion of tumour. The value of computed tomographic scanning in children with epilepsy is discussed, particularly in children with focal EEG changes.
