The effects of anticonvulsive medication on vestibular function, an electronystagmographic study.

Rasmussen, T.This study was conducted during the years 1960-61 when I was appointed a Hosmer Teaching Fellow in the Department of Otolaryngology, McGill University, at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal. The original plan of this study was to evaluate the possible effect of some temporal lobe lesions upon vestibular function. It has been reported that a lesion of the temporal lobe may produce directional preponderance of nystagmus to the side of the lesion in response to calorie stimulation. (Fitzgerald and Hallpike 1942, and Carmichael, et al, 1954).
