Nonuremic patients with apparently normal memory and behavior, studied by means of cerebral computed tomography and found to have cerebral atrophy (CA), evidenced functional intellectual deficits when they underwent psychometric testing. The finding of CA has been repeatedly reported in limited case groups of uremic patients who also demonstrated functional intellectual deficits on the basis of the same tests. This retrospective study considered all diagnostic cerebral computed tomography scans done in our department between 1981 and 1998. Fifty-five uremic patients in conservative treatment (CT) and 111 patients in hemodialysis treatment (HT) were selected on the basis of the following two criteria: primary nephropathy as the cause of uremia and an age < or =55 years to exclude involutive brain changes occurring with age.
