[Follow-up of patients with a history of early childhood schizophrenia (its unfavorable variant)].
The article presents the results of a follow-up of 113 patients suffering from infantile schizophrenia with an unfavourable course. The mean duration of the follow-up in 84 patients was over 11-15 years. In the follow-up period 84% of the patients were characterized by productive predominantly catatonic disturbances with features of pseudooligophrenic dementia, autistic behaviour and apathic manifestations. In the remaining 16% of the patients the state could be assessed as residual with the predominant oligophrenic defect and apatho-autistic behaviour. The author discusses infantile schizophrenia running an unfavourable course at delayed stages of its development, the formation of the defect and also the therapy and care for such children.
