  • Title: [The volume of white matter in cerebral palsy with MRI findings of periventricular leukomalacia].

    Journal: No To Hattatsu; 1997 Jan; 29(1):33-8. PubMed ID: 8986094.
    Abstract:
    The volume of the white matter in 5 cases of cerebral palsy (CP) of term delivery without hypoxic episodes with MRI findings of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), was compared with that of 12 CP cases in preterm delivery manifesting typical MRI findings of PVL. It was significantly decreased in the latter. The volume for the full-term CP cases was the same as that for children born at term and developing normally. These findings suggest that the grade of perinatal brain damage is different between the full-term and pre-term CP cases, and that the intrauterine timing of fetal circulatory disturbance is different.
