Brain atrophy in children leading to poor brain development is a neurological disorder that is difficult to cure, but symptoms can be improved through physical therapy and medication.

The causes of pediatric brain atrophy are complex and diverse, including abnormal blood components, changes in cerebral vascular elasticity, and various other factors. Genetic factors may also play a certain role. Sequelae include intellectual decline, impaired sensory functions, and changes in personality and behavior.
