[An epileptic syndrome in infantile cerebral palsy].

The results of examination of 102 patients with infantile cerebral paralysis (ICP) with epileptic syndrome (ES) at the age from 3 months to 14 years are presented. Epileptic fits predominated in patients with hemiparetic form of ICP (40.8%) and spastic diplegia (32.

[Short-latency brain stem evoked potentials to acoustic stimulation in closed craniocerebral trauma in children].

Twenty-six children with closed craniocerebral trauma (CCCT) of various severity were examined by recording short-latent stem-induced potentials in response to acoustic stimulation. Prognostical authenticity of the method in severe CCCT in children was established, which allowed reversible and irreversible disorders of brain them function to be distinguished. Studies in dynamics made it possible to follow the course of the pathological process and correct the applied therapy in time.

[Crystallographic study of cerebrospinal fluid in closed craniocerebral injuries in children].

The authors examined 65 children with closed head trauma of varying severity and 68 children with other acute neurological diseases. A new method of the diagnosis and assessment of the severity of closed craniocerebral injury, namely, crystallographic examination of the patients' cerebrospinal fluid, was used in the study. The method helped to establish the clinical forms of closed head trauma and to determine its severity and the presence of complications.
