title: [Results of craniometric, electroencephalographic and neuroradiologic studies in cerebral palsy].
abstract: The authors first of all mentioned four characteristic features that are indispensable to the diagnosis of cerebral palsy. The deformations of the skull which are quite frequently found in these cases were examined by means of a craniometric method of measurement and divided into five groups. The majority of the patients examined showed pathological electroencephalograms characterized by diffuse, generalized variations, lateralization, and variations in attacks. The x-ray examination did not show an adhesion of cranial sutures, which is in contradiction to the views held heretofore. In the majority of cases the pneumoencephalography yielded pathological results which were divided into groups: uni- and bilateral cerebral atrophies, bilateral cortical atrophy, and generalized cerebral and cortical atrophy. Cerebral angiography could not contribute any essential data to the pneumoencephalographically established diagnosis.
