    Background. The epidemiological characteristics of cerebral palsy are one of the important indicators of neurological health in children. Methods. Data on children with cerebral palsy, born from 1981 ... to 1988 (Slovenian citizens in 1995), were analysed. Data were obtained from the National Cerebral Palsy Register andupdated recently. Results. Among seven- to fourteen-year-old children there were 699 with cerebral palsy (3.3/1000). 38 of them (5.4%) werenot born in Slovenia. The smallest prevalence was recorded in Novo mesto region (2.4/1000), and the greatest one in Kranj region (4.9/1000). Boys had cerebral palsy 1.4-fold more frequent than girls (p<0.05). 274 children (42.5%) were born before term. 592 children (84.7%) had spastic syndromes of cerebral palsy, 51 (7.3%) atactic syndromes, 41(5.9%) dyskinetic syndromes, and 15 children (2.1%) hypotonic syndromes. Epilepsy was diagnosed in 213 children (30.5%). 163 of them (76.5%) were mentally retarded. The grequency ofepilepsy was the smallest in Murska Sobota region (19.4%), and the greatest in Nova Gorica region (55.6%). Mental retardation was confirmed in 335 children (47.9%). 163 of them (48.7%) had also epilepsy. The frequency of mental retardation was the smallest in Ravne region (23.4%), and the greatest in Maribor region (74.7%). Conclusions. The epidemiological characteristics ofcerebral palsy are not the same in all parts of Slovenia. The differences found should be further studied.
