title: [Social compensation problems of children and adolescents suffering from epilepsy against a background of neural infection].
abstract: Five hundred individuals with a history of neural infection in childhood or adolescence have been followed-up. Lower indicators, in particular with regard to academic performance, have been found in persons with CNS pathology, risk factors of epilepsy, and especially in epileptic patients, as compared to clinically healthy subjects. This is explained by psychic and neurologic abnormalities, above all by the presence of the cerebral asthenic, hypertensive CSF syndrome and affective aberrations, as well as by the rate and severity of attacks. The factors contributing to the improvement of social compensation include above all psychoneurologic and pedagogical observation over children with a history of neural infection attended by residual abnormalities, intensification of health education of teachers and parents and adequate individual professional orientation and employment.
