Summary/Abstract: The problem of autistic spectrum disorders is a subject frequently discussed at present due to an increased number of children who have shown autistic symptoms in recent years. Early diagnosis is a first step towards integrating the child with autism into a therapeutic programme and implicitly to alleviate delays in developing these children. The main research method was the case study. This article discusses how early diagnosis influences the subsequent development of the child with autism and the results of different therapies on alleviating the delays in these children’s development.
