The psychosocial and intellectual development of 4 boys with nephropathic cystinosis and brain atrophy documented by cranial computerized tomography was investigated by use of biographical data and psychological tests (HAWIK, Deutscher Rechtschreibtest). Inspite of the brain atrophy the patients showed low-normal intellectual capacities and mainly average school performance. There were no psychosocial abnormalities correlated to the primary metabolic disease. However, renal dwarfism led to mascotism requiring psychotherapy.
通过传记资料和心理测试（HAWIK，德国拼写测试），对4名经头颅计算机断层扫描证实患有肾病性胱氨酸病和脑萎缩的男孩的心理社会和智力发育情况进行了调查。尽管存在脑萎缩，但这些患者的智力能力处于正常低水平，学业成绩主要为中等。没有发现与原发性代谢疾病相关的心理社会异常情况。然而，肾性侏儒症导致了需要心理治疗的社交障碍。
