abstract
  • An autistic savant is a term used for the person who has both autism and another condition called Savant Syndrome. People with Savant Syndrome has serious developmental or mental infirmities coupled at the same time with certain extraordinary skills. Such skills may include exceptional memory, arithmetical abilities, extraordinary skills in art or music. The special abilities of autistic savant are recognized generally during childhood in children with autism and other developmental difficulties. In an article entitled "Savant Syndrome: An Extraordinary Condition", Darold A. Treffert, MD, describes Autistic savant which he termed as Savant Syndrome, in these words: "Savant syndrome is a rare, but extraordinary, condition in which persons with serious mental disabilities, including autistic disorder, have some "island of genius" that stands in marked, incongruous contrast to the overall handicap. As many as one in 10 persons with autistic disorder have such remarkable abilities in varying degrees, although savant syndrome occurs in other developmental disabilities or in other instances of CNS injury or disease as well. Whatever the particular savant skill, it is always linked to massive memory."
