The value of visual evoked potential as a screening test in neurofibromatosis.

摘要: • Pattern reversal visual evoked potential (VEP) test was performed in 30 asymptomatic patients with neurofibromatosis (NF). All had normal acuity, fields, and ophthalmoscopic examination results. VEP abnormal eight (26%). Seven of these computed tomographic scans reformated orbital views. Orbital were six each case showed enlargement the optic nerve on side abnormality. Our data indicate that pattern is a valuable screening NF. Because high incidence abnormality such patients, must be interpreted cautiously when patient NF suspected having other diseases or disorders potentially affect pathways.
