Enuresis in child psychiatric clinic patients.
The clinical profile and the outcome of 386 enuretic children attending a child psychiatric clinic were studied and compared with 2,404 other child psychiatric cases assessed during the same period. The profiles of developmental and family history, psychiatric diagnoses, specific delays in development at assessment, and intelligence resembled each other. The only exceptions were an overrepresentation of delayed developmental milestones in the history and an underrepresentation of neuroses and eating disorders among enuretics.
