Autism Spectrum Disorder 9-year-old boy – Intestinal flora transplantation case report
Case presentation 9-year-old boy with autistic spectrum disorder
summary
Hyperactive, but quiet with parental attention. He is absorbed in playing games on his cell phone.
His speech is faltering, but he is producing a few words. He responds to instructions but does not seem to have true understanding. Also, he is not communicating or being mindful.
At the results presentation 5 months after the third transplant was completed, he was calmer than before. He is able to sit in a chair to some extent.
He has also been able to understand and utter the language of requests more often. Although he has not been taking oxytocin recently, he is doing well and is able to go back to school without any trouble after the Corona voluntary restraint.
We explained to him that he should continue to carefully nurture the transplanted fungal solution.

Transplant Information
| Transplantation period: from | January 11, 2020 – January 25, 2020 |
| Number of transplants : | 3 times |
| Change from first transplant to end of transplant : |
|
3 transplants conducted 【1st transplantation questionnaire】 He was autistic, never panicked, and quiet. 【2nd transplantation questionnaire】 After the first transplant, he had no discharge of fungal fluid and was not in a bad mood. 【3rd transplantation questionnaire】 No change in symptoms. 【Questionnaire at the examination】 Explanation of the results of the post-transplant flora balance test from the end of the third transplant. (Final) |
| Changes after completion of transplant : |
|
Though there was no significant change immediately after the transplant, at least it hasn’t gotten worse. The parroting has decreased. |
Evaluation and Discussion
| Transplant Evaluation : | Mild improvement of symptoms |
| Pre- and post-transplant flora balance test changes : |
Based on the pre-transplant flora balance, the patient may have lacked mental stability.
After the transplant, diversity is detected without problems compared to before the transplant. The mother’s efforts in her diet are evident.
We believe that the balance has been replaced and that the person may be confused about the change because he is trying to heal but lacks one more push. Ideally, we think that additional transplants, etc. over a longer period of time would help settle things down.

| Blood test changes : | No comment |
| POMS2 SCORE CHANGE : | No inspection |
< Intestinal flora balance 1st data >
< Intestinal flora balance 2nd data >

|
Although there seems to have been some improvement in understanding and bowel movements, it is important to grow the transplanted bacteria in the future because of the short period of time. |
