The topographical relationships between the location of brainstem lesions detected by magnetic resonance imaging and abnormality of brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) and short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) were studied in 57 patients with stroke in the posterior fossa. Abnormal BAEPs or SSEPs were associated with lesions involving the pontine tegmentum, and abnormal BAEPs also with lesions at the cerebellar peduncle. Absence of the V wave in BAEPs and N20 in SSEPs was associated with a localized overlapping area in the pontine tegmentum contralateral to stimulation. The overlapping area associated with loss of N20 coincided with the location of the medial lemniscus. Lesions widely involving the pontine tegmentum caused the disappearance of multiple waves in the BAEPs and SSEPs. Patients who entered prolonged coma or died had total loss of the III, IV, and V waves, bilateral absence to the contralateral response in BAEPs, or loss of N18 in SSEPs. The loss of N18 in SSEPs had a statistically significant correlation with bad outcome, which suggests the superiority of SSEPs for predicting the outcome of stroke and indicates the involvement of some system excluding the medial lemniscus in the generation of N18.
