Abstract:   (2450 Views)
Improvement of cognitive functioning in brain injured patients is related to the age of injury, premorbid intellectual status and effectiveness of rehabilitative and supportive measures. Most of the improvement occurs during the first two years after trauma. The authors had previously reported the cognitive profile of a 13 year-old boy suffering severe brain damage. In this report the continuation of his cognitive improvement documented by a battery of neuropsychological tests following extensive rehabilitation and training is discussed.
