Extract

Schizophrenia occurring in the early years is generally recognized to be a deteriorating illness and one in which therapy has little effect. Tredgold (6) recognized schizophrenia as a cause of oligophrenia and most mental deficiency hospitals have a number of these patients. Although not numerically a large problem, they are among the most difficult patients to handle.
