Abstrakt: A neuropsychological analysis was used as one of the supplementary methods for diagnosing subacute leuko- and panencephalititdes in 42 patients. This method permitted to detect multifocal lesions, the fluctuation in the degree of marked defects, the secondary character of disturbed higher mental functions (due to defects in the organization of activity). Consideration of these data promotes, to a significant extent, the diagnosis of leuko- and panencephalitides differentiating them from brain tumors and leuko-dystrophy.
