Abstract
This study reports on five cases seen in a child psychiatry service in Northern India who met the criteria for disintegrative psychoses of childhood. Their clinical features were different from the described for autistic disorders of childhood supporting the validity of this disorder. The issues of diagnostic criteria and classification of disintegrative psychoses as distinct from autistic disorders is highlighted.
