Recherches sur l’agénésie cérébrale et la paralysie congénitale.

Arch. gén. Méd., 14, 5-33, 347-66, 1827.

“The first scientific paper on paralysis in children was published in 1827 by Jean Baptiste Cazauvieilh, who […] noted that congenital hemiplegia was associated with cerebral atrophy and differentiated those due to ‘l’agenèse cérébrale’ (congenital cerebral agenesis) from ’l’atrophie consecutive’ (acquired cerebral atrophy)" (Ashwall, Founders of child neurology, 16, 20).
