Cerebral palsy in Cape Town: A review of 389 coloured children.
Three hundred and eighty-nine Coloured cerebral palsied children were reviewed with regard to clinical type and its relationship to aetiological factors. There was no significant change in type or severity of case over two 6-year periods. Associated handicaps were also analysed, and the prevalence of these stresses the need for comprehensive assessment and treatment clinics so that multidisciplinary treatment can minimize the extent of the disabilities.
