A follow-up of 23 patients with measles encephalitis was carried out six months to ten years after the onset of the disease. Neurological and electroencephalographic features have been examined together with specific psychological tests. Clinical and electsroencephalographic abnormalities, frequently observed during the acute phase of the disease, were rarely detected during the follow-up. However intellectual performances with specific visuo-spatial and attentional involvement are often impaired. Specific psychological tests are required to evaluate visuo-spatial and attention performances, frequently impaired as a consequence of the disease; these are often considered minor psychological disturbances as they are limited to scholastic performances. The Authors conclude that, although measles encephalitis is a fairly serious illness during its acute phase, it tends to improve with time until recovery is complete. The psychological residual deficits, detected during the follow-up, should not be considered as minor disturbances.
