Abstract
The incidence of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is around 6% of school population
and is often associated with other specific learning disabilities (dyslexia, dyscalculia)
or developmental disorders (i.e. ADHD). A careful medical history is mandatory to
identify the often associated disabilities and to exclude a worsening of the motor performances,
which can be due to other degenerative diseases. In some cases, a complete physical
examination can specify the diagnosis by detecting an objective cause. When the family
history is positive and the neurological examination is otherwise normal, no other medical
examinations are required. However, the role of electroencephalography is discussed.
When diseases needing a timely medical intervention are excluded, a multidisciplinary
approach is advisable, in particular if school achievement and/or social skills are
poor. The main reasons for not neglecting DCD are dictated by the evidence that this disorder
does not disappear with age, and that it can severely limit daily activities, with
strong impact on social life and self-esteem.
