ABSTRACT
The Authors compare the electroencephalographic findings and the tests of hepatic function in 140 patients with diagnosis of alcoholism. They notice the great percentage of normal EEG and the prevalence in the other cases of modest and aspecific anomalies. This findings is in accordance with most of the Authors who have studied this subject. The Authors remark also the positive correlation between these anomalies and the tests of hepatic function; they notice also how important is the contemporary presence of hematochemical changes and even slight signs of a neurotoxic syndrome, of which the EEG anomalies could be the expression, in order to formulate a correct prognosis and therapy of neurological and psychiatric alcoholism.
