Questão jurídica principal
Whether the developmental deficits were causally linked to the recognized congenital epilepsy so as to justify coverage of occupational therapy under Art. 13 IVG.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The required close natural and adequate causal connection was established with the usual proof standard of preponderance of probabilities.
Fundamentação extraída
The specialist report found a direct link and explained that developmental delays often precede the epileptic manifestation in this syndrome. No case-specific expert opinion undermined that assessment.
