Abstract
Because of the nature and location of the lesion in central pontine myelinolysis, considerable difficulties in diagnosis may arise. Computed tomography (CT) and brainstem auditory-evoked potentials are useful in following the spread and regression of the pontine lesion. The correlation between clinical evolution, serial CT scans, and brainstem auditory-evoked potentials is considered in a patient with central pontine myelinolysis and subsequent complete recovery with special emphasis on the evolution of the CT scan after recovery.
