[The use of spectral analysis in studying the E.E.G. under enflurane (author's transl)].

Spectral study of E.E.G. activity under enflurane anaesthesia shows a mild and early increase in global power distributed over the whole spectrum up to 20 c/sec, initially without dominant activity. Slow activity at 4-6 c/sec occurs later and gradually becomes slower, although without providing what could be called a specific pattern. These results have been compared with the same spectral analysis approach in anoxia in the normal subject and in epileptic subjects. Our experience so far does not allow the identification of the discharges observed the enflurane as epileptic discharge.

[Severe neuropsychic disturbances in a young adolescent treated with an endocrine therapy].

After a treatment based on the administration of gonadotropic drugs, aimed at reduced school difficulties and caracterial difficulties by a premature onset of puberty, a young male aged 13 1/2 presents: 1 degree somatic anomalies; 2 degrees increase of intellectual, affective and behavioral troubles; 3 degrees perturbations of EEG prophiles; 4 degrees organicity tests significantly disturbed. The interruption of treatment (4 years of observation) was followed by a progressive remission, however heterogenous, of all initial troubles. The observation underlines the dangers of utilising these treatments in a pre-puberty boy.
