Evoked Potentials in Patients With Wilson Disease

Conclusions: The data showed that VEP and BAEP are more frequently abnormal in WD than previously reported. The abnormal VEP and BAEP even without clinical signs and brain MRI abnormalities point to subclinical involvement of visual and auditory pathways caused by copper toxicity. Because VEP and BAEP are noninvasive and widely available, they should be performed in all patents with WD.
