The spectrum of associated XXXX in @entity5892 : relation to gestational age and outcome.

@entity1 @entity5892 @entity548 @entity75 @entity1188 @entity194 @entity62
OBJECTIVE: To describe different patterns of associated @entity75 in preterm and full-term @entity1 with @entity5892 ( @entity5892 ) and to assess whether these different patterns are related to gestational age at onset. DESIGN: Magnetic resonance scans of all neonates (six preterm, 24 full term) with suspected @entity5892 , collected over a 7-year period in two neonatal intensive care units, were evaluated to assess patterns of associated @entity75 . Comparisons between the two gestational age groups were made. RESULTS: @entity5892 was confirmed on magnetic resonance venography in 26 of 30 neonates (six preterm, 20>= 36 weeks' gestational age). The straight (85%) and superior sagittal (65%) sinus were most often affected. Several sinuses were involved in 81% of @entity1 . White matter damage affecting the entire periventricular white matter was seen in five of six preterm @entity1 . @entity548 ( @entity548 ) was common in both groups (4/6 preterm, 16/20 full term). @entity62 with restricted diffusion (15/20) and @entity548 associated with @entity548 (11/20) were the most frequent lesions in full-term @entity1 . Focal arterial @entity1188 was present in four of 20 full-term @entity1 . Six @entity1 died in the neonatal period (four preterm, two full term). Follow-up MRIs at 3 months in all survivors showed evolution of the lesions with frontal @entity194 in 13 of 20 (12 full term) and delayed myelination in seven of 20 (six full term). CONCLUSIONS: Preterm and full-term neonates show different patterns of associated @entity75 . Extensive white matter damage is the predominant pattern of injury in the preterm @entity1 , while an @entity548 associated with a thalamic @entity62 are more common in the full-term @entity1 .
