[State of the nervous systems and cerebral vessels in several forms of dwarfism].
The authors studied the state of the nervous system in 29 patients with hypophyseal and 25 patients with cerebral nanism. In was demonstrated that in cerebral nanism, unlike hypophyseal, there are signs of the nervous system lesions on different levels. A REG study of the state of cerebral vessels in 14 patients with hypophyseal and 17 patients with cerebral nanism demonstrated that in patients with hypophyseal nanism the vascular condition practically did not differ from normal children of the same age, while in cerebral nanism there was an irregularity of the rheographic waves, an increased cerebral-vascular tone and a significant intrahemispheric asymmetry of the pulse blood flow. These data may be used for differential diagnosis of hypophyseal and cerebral nanism.
