- Abstract
- The recordings of electroencephalography of forty
subjects with pervasive developmental disorder were
analyzed. The subjects consisted of twenty nine
infantile autisms and eleven childhood onset pervasive
developmental disorders.
Among the forty subjects, twenty five(62. 5%) had
abnormal electroencephalographic findings. There was
no significant difference in the rate of abnormal
electroencephalographic findings between infantile
autism(62.0%) and childhood onset pervasive developmental
disorder(63.7%). The most frequent
abnormal findings were irregular focal slowings,
best seen during light sleep electroencephalography.
Of forty subjects, twenty(50%) had focal slowings,
either alone or with other components such as focal
spike, focal sharp wave or paroxysmal spike and wave complexes. The paroxysmal spike and wave
plus independent spikes were seen in four 00%) of
forty subjects, who had the history of epileptic
seizure previously.
It was noted that infantile autism and childhood
onset pervasive developmental disorder showed differences
in severity and content of the abnormal
findings, although they were not different in the
incidence of abnormal electroencephalography, The
former was read more severe and irritative than the
latter.
In vicw of the above findings, it is suggested that
organic brain dysfunction seems to be one of the
important etiological factors in pervasive developme
ntal disorder and thc electroencephalography proves
to be an essential tool to assess pervasive developmental-
disorder children.
