The authors report a case of cerebral softening in which almost entirely unilateral periodic discharges were observed. They consisted of isolated high-voltage spiked waves predominating distinctly on the side of the lesion. The interval between spikes was always 2-3 seconds. The origin of these signs is discussed. The fact that they are not necessarily related to an infectious or metabolic disease is underlined.
