Infantile autism can be cured by neurosurgery?
by simbazig, Apr 22, 2008 12:40AM
My 10-year-old nephew suffers infantile autism:eye contact problem, language problem, mentally retarded, cranky, autosadism. I serf the medical websites. Therapy of infantile autism focuses on behaviorism therapy such as pictures, music, physical exercise,etc. I also found some surgeons treated autism patients by neurosurgery operations. I wonder whether neurosurgery operations are really effective for curing infantile autism and this kind of therapy is mature. Any risks exist in neurosurgery operations? Any successful cases around the world? After the redundant nerves are cut off, is it possible for them to revive after operations? Hope for your replies! Thanks a lot!
