[Neuropsychiatric follow-up of four- to eleven-year-old children with conspicuous skull diaphanoscopy (transillumination) findings in infancy].
Out of a group diaphanoscopically conspicuous infants a random test including 58 children was carried out in the form of psychological (HAWIK and SIT) and motometric (ROS) checkups and correlated with the findings obtained in babies and infants. In spite of a considerable delay in development (60 per cent of the children) in the first two years of life, the children showed on an average a normal intelligence in later years; in children at school age, however, a statistically significant fine-motor weakness was found. The incidence of convulsive fits was three to four times that of the normal. The subdural effusion (SDE) is considered as a factor of a disposition to the manifestation of an epilepsy although the high correlation of SDE and epilepsy mentioned in the literature could not be confirmed.
