Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation is the most serious direct complication of intraventricular haemorrhage after preterm birth. It results initially from multiple small blood clots throughout the cerebrospinal fluid channels impeding circulation and reabsorption. Management is difficult and new treatment approaches are needed.
متن کاملBrain specific proteins in posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Median neurofilament and glial fibrillary acidic protein concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid of 18 infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation were 20-200 times higher than control values. S-100 protein in cerebrospinal fluid was four times higher than control values. Glial fibrillary acidic protein concentrations correlated with death or disability and with parenchymal lesions b...
متن کاملDevelopmental and neurological progress of preterm infants with intraventricular haemorrhage and ventricular dilatation.
A prospective neurological and developmental assessment was completed at ages 6, 9, and 12 months on 39 preterm infants under 34 weeks' gestation. In the newborn period each infant had an assessment of gestation and sequential neurological and ultrasound examinations and was placed in one of three groups: intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) (n = 14), IVH followed by ventricular dilatation (n = 1...
متن کاملAuditory brain stem responses in infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation.
Nineteen infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation had auditory brain stem responses measured during the period of maximal ventricular dilatation. These showed various patterns ranging from normal, through various abnormalities, to complete absence of responses. When serial auditory brain stem responses were studied in parallel with the evolution of posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilat...
متن کاملElusive blood clots and fluctuating ventricular dilatation after neonatal intraventricular haemorrhage.
Two cases are described of a previously unrecognised sequel of posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation. The first case documents freely mobile blood clots within the lateral ventricular system, the second variable asymmetry in the size of the dilated lateral ventricle. The unilateral ventricular dilatation depended on which side the infant was lying, the dependent ventricle being considerably l...
