Abstract

48 Chronic alcoholic patients with a clinical picture consistent with midline cerebellar disease was evaluated regarding alcohol related seizures. These seizures were noted in about 15% of this patient group. This seizure incidence approximates that in the severely alcoholic hospitalized population. Thus, the midline cerebral degeneration does not appear to influence the seizure diathesis in the chronic alcoholic.
