Abstract

Electrodiagnostic studies were carried out in 4 patients with neurological complications of acute hemorrhatic conjunctivitis at Severance Hospital on 1983. Both motor and sensory nerve conduction studies were normal even in the involved limbs. The electromyography, however, reveals denervation potentials and neuropathic MUPs. The somatosensory evoked potentials taken in median nerve stimulated at the wrist and peroneal nerve stimulated around the knee showed normal latencies, shapes and amplitudes almost symmetrically.
