چکیده
Behavioral neurology has been bridging the gap between neurology and psychiatry in children. There are several neuropsychiatric disorders of children in which aggression is a dominant symptom. Both global disorders like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder as well as localized dysfunction of the brain may lead to aggression. A number of neurometabolic disorders as well as post-epileptic and postsurgical states may present with aggression in children. Drugs are sometimes effective especially in combination with a multimode approach. In this review some of the more common causes for aggression in neurologically impaired children, the associated co-morbidities and treatment are discussed. (J Pediatr Neurol 2003; 1(1): 9-14).
