Cerebellar atrophy in epilepsy and headache

Abstract
CT scans of 70 patients with seizures and 48 patients with headaches were studied. Using accepted CT criteria for the diagnosis of cerebellar atrophy, the films were analyzed in a blind, unbiased fashion to evaluate possible relationship between cerebellar atrophy and phenytoin use or epilepsy itself. We found no evidence that either phenytoin or epilepsy caused cerebellar atrophy.
