Abstract

In this work we intend to show the relevance of the updated knowledge of the symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder - ASD with the objective of contributing to the adequate perception of this disorder, already in early childhood. It seeks to show relevant information so that the people who constitute the routine of the child can at least discern between atypical signs and symptoms, referring it to health experts. Methodologically selected the most relevant materials published in the last decade to the current scientific findings that address the theme of Autism Spectrum Disorder - TEA. The result seeks to facilitate the recognition of symptoms in children with autism, early, thus enabling, with the intervention of a health professional, a better quality of life for the child with Autism Spectrum Disorder - ASD in early childhood. The presence of autistic behavior may manifest itself as early as the first months of life, but it may go unnoticed. Therefore it is necessary to divulge the subject to the knowledge and identification of the symptoms of the child with autism.
