Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the pattern of neuropsychic developmental disorders in children and adolescents with progressive muscular dystrophies (и= 19) and congenital structural myopathies (я=10). The syndrome method developed by A.R. Luria was used to analyze the higher mental functions. The patients were found to have impairments in visual-spatial function, somatosen-sory gnosis, and tactile sensitivity. In the children and adolescents with progressive muscular dystrophies, neuropsychological deficit is higher than that in the patients with congenital structural myopathies. The pattern of higher mental dysfunctions will be able to predict the future mental development of a child and to choose adequate methods of psycho-pedagogical correction.
