Abstract

74 heavy drinkers, divided in two groups by positive or negative history for withdrawal seizures, were evaluated on the history, clinical, biochemical, CT, EEG and psychometric investigations. Some of them have been followed up for 20 months. The results suggest the possible role of a constitutional predisposition for withdrawal seizures.
