The tibial nerve P30 potential was studied in 6 patients with focal lesions located in the vicinity of the cervicomedullary junction. P30 potential was unaffected while cortical P39 was abnormal in the patients with a supramedullary lesion affecting the somatosensory pathway just above its decussati
Median nerve somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were studied in a patient before and after the development of a cervico-medullary lesion. The first examination demonstrated normal subcortical generated potentials N13 and N14. The second examination, following a subarachnoid haemorrhage at the ce
