Detection of a central nervous system lesion in a patient with Fisher's syndrome.
We report a 57-year-old man with Fisher's syndrome in whom both peripheral and central nervous system (CNS) lesions were detected. Clinical electrophysiological examinations including peripheral conduction studies, SEPs and BAEPs indicated conduction delay in the CNS as well as in the peripheral nerve.
