    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario I potenziali evocati multimodali sono stati effettuati in 18 pazienti (8 maschi e 10 femmine), affetti da distrofia miotonica. Lo scopo era di effettuare una valutazione elettrofisiologica dell'interessamento del sistema nervoso centrale in questa malattia. I potenziali evocati del tronco, somatosensitivi e visivi sono risultati abnormi rispettivamente nel 53%, 62.5% e 71.4% dei casi, senza apparente relazione con la gravità della malattia. I risultati da noi ottenuti forniscono un'ulteriore conferma dell'interessamento del SNC nella distrofia miotonica che è possibile in varie combinazioni, suggerendo un aspecifico interessamento a diversi livelli, che riflette il carattere multisistemico della malattia.
    Notes: Abstract Multimodality evoked potentials were performed in 18 patients affected by myotonic dystrophy (8 males and 10 females); the aim was to make an electrophysiological evaluation of the central nervous system involvement in this disease. We observed brainstem, somatosensory and visual evoked potential abnormalities respectively in 53%, 62.5% and 71.4% of cases, with no apparent relationship to the severity of the disease. Our abnormal findings provide further confirmation of CNS involvement in myotonic dystrophy and occur in various combinations suggesting an aspecific involvement at different levels, reflecting the multisystemic character of this disease.
