[Minimal cerebral palsy neuropaediatric analysis of 81 cases (author's transl)].
The term "minimal cerebral palsy (MCP)"  is discussed, and the importance of its recognition according to a neuropediatric approach is stressed. The spectrum of causes, symptoms and signs of MCP in 81 cases is presented. MCP was diagnosed mainly in boys between their seventh and eleventh year of life. The history indicates a high frequency of pathological conditions of the newborn, especially prematurity (symptoms of risk). A tendency to a late onset of walking unaided, speaking and successful toilet training is noted. Characteristic signs of MCP are as follows: Asymmetries of skull and face, left handedness caused by neurological dysfunction of the right hand, disorders of vision and speech. It is important to search for MCP among children with learning disabilities and behavioural disturbances.
