Abstract:
Three-hundred and eighty-one children born with forceps delivery and 372 with normal delivery were followed up for 4-7 years. More children in the forceps group developed seizures than in normal group, i.e. 22:10. This was statistically significant (P less than 0.05). A prolonged follow-up is necessary for further observations.
