  • Title: Cystic brain lesion in utero.
    Author: Nakamura Y, Fujiyoshi Y, Fukuda S, Matsunaga T, Hashimoto T, Manabe A, Nakashima T.
    Journal: Acta Pathol Jpn; 1986 Apr; 36(4):613-20. PubMed ID: 3014814.
    Abstract:
    Two autopsy cases of cystic brain lesion in utero are reported. One of them was a donor infant of twin transfusion syndrome. The baby died immediately after birth and showed multicystic encephalomalacia in the distribution of the anterior cerebral artery. The second baby was a stillborn infant with thanatophoric dwarfism with associated chronic periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). It was suggested that the multicystic encephalomalacia and chronic PVL found in the first and second cases were caused by persistent circulatory disturbances in utero.
