title: [Auditory brain stem response and child attention deficit hyperactivity disorder].
abstract: Diagnostic audiological test performed in two children showed remarkable differences between the results of behavioral audiometry and those of auditory evoked response audiometry. The results of neuropsychological evaluation showed attention disorders. It is possible that a response desynchronisation in the auditory pathway may exist in these disorders. Interpretation of ABR findings can be problematic in children with learning disabilities or minimal cerebral dysfunction.
