The source of 'paradoxical lateralization' of cortical evoked potentials to posterior tibial nerve stimulation

Abstract
We report the potentials elicited by posterior tibial nerve stimulation and recorded simultaneously from the scalp and from electrodes within the interhemispheric fissure. The primary cortical potential was recorded from cortex contralateral but from scalp ipsilateral to the stimulated nerve. The scalp recordings thus demonstrated “paradoxical lateralization” as reported previously, and the similar morphology of the scalp and contralateral cortical recordings confirm that this “paradoxical lateralization” is most likely the result of a horizontal dipole located within the interhemispheric fissure.
