Abstract
The focal symptoms of sequelae of cranial war injuries, 154 cases passed on one and a half to three years after their injuries without fracture of bone, were studied. 154 cases of diskinesias were classified as follows; asthenias 22%, monoplegias 25%, hemiplegias 40% and paraplegias 13%.
Even the slightest asthenias was infrequently the recovery form severer conditions, but it sustained from the very beginning on. The most common or typical syndrom was that of hemiplegias, however, its concomitant symptoms were to be found more multiformed including such syndroms which would fit into some of descriptions or which could be considered as more complexed or unusual combinations of each components. It was characteristic in paraplegic syndroms that comparatively milder pareses were more frequent in parietal head injuries and that overall complicated concomitant syndroms, particularly emotional and volitional disturbances, were observed in general. The clinical pictures presented themselves to be extraordinarily manifold and differentially difficult, for there certainly were such cases where flaccid pareses could not be simply described as spastic, where flaccid pareses were involved, and where neurotic factors were overlain to blur the whole pictures.
