Ten-year experience with abnormal EEGs in asymptomatic adult males.
This study reports a 10-year experience of the USAF School of Aerospace Medicine with spike waves of focal spikes on a screening electroencephalogram in aviators who did not have a history of seizure, unexplained loss of consciousness, or significant neurologic abnormality at the time of the first abnormal electroencephalogram. Only one of 20 patients went on to develop a seizure disorder 4 years after his first abnormal electroencephalogram.

Olivary hypertrophy without palatal myoclonus associated with a metastatic lesion to the pontine tegmentum.
A 46-year-old man had metastasis to the central tegmental tract of the pons with ipsilateral olivary hypertrophy. Although the phenomenon of palatal myochlonus has been repeatedly correlated with the finding of olivary hypertrophy, no palatal myoclonus was noted on repeated examinations. The clinical pathologic correlates and literature of similar cases are reviewed.
