title: [Development prognosis in serious skull and brain injuries in children].
abstract: The long-term control of the developmental process of 16 children after an apallic syndrome shows that the remaining neurological functional disturbances are the more severe, the older the patients were at the time of the accident, while the disturbance of the intellectual development is the more pronounced, the younger the children were. The clinical picture of the cerebro-organic psychosyndrome changes in the course of the development. Also in case of a good regression of the neurological functional disturbances and the possibility of a further attendance of a normal school, the patients will often no more be able to meet the requirements of an independent conduct of life later, similar to the patient with injuries of the frontal lobe of the brain.
