  • Title: [Craniocerebral injuries in childhood].
    Author: Reinhardt V, Gerhard L, Nau HE, Nahser HC.
    Journal: Neurochirurgia (Stuttg); 1983 Nov; 26(6):177-80. PubMed ID: 6656983.
    Abstract:
    Causes of head injury in childhood depend on age. In contrast to the adults there are differences in pathophysiological mechanisms and in the site of lesions. Brain stem disorders are more frequent, superficial brain damage is less frequent than in children. Multiple lesions of the limbic system are as well important as those ones of the mesencephalon. Most of the cases of apallic syndromes in childhood can be due to these lesions.
