Congenital hydrocephalus secondary to intra-uterine germinal matrix/intraventricular haemorrhage / Alan HILL in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-4 (August 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-4 (August 1984) . - p.524-527 Titre : Congenital hydrocephalus secondary to intra-uterine germinal matrix/intraventricular haemorrhage Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Alan HILL, Auteur ; Bohdan ROZDILSKI, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.524-527 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : An infant with hydrocephalus which had been diagnosed at birth died at one month of age. Subsequent neuropathological studies demonstrated old germinal matrix haemorrhage and complete occlusion of the aqueduct of Sylvius by fibroglial tissue, both of which appeared to be older than four weeks, indicating that they had occurred in utero. These observations are consistent with the occurrence of intra-uterine intraventricular haemorrhage secondary to haemorrhage of the subependymal germinal matrix, leading to occlusion of the aqueduct of Sylvius and hydrocephalus prior to birth.

Hypoxic-ischaemic cerebral injury in the term newborn: correlation of CT findings with neurological outcome / Donald B. ADSETT in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-2 (April 1985)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 27-2 (April 1985) . - p.155-160 Titre : Hypoxic-ischaemic cerebral injury in the term newborn: correlation of CT findings with neurological outcome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Donald B. ADSETT, Auteur ; Alan HILL, Auteur ; Charles R. FITZ, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.155-160 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : For asphyxiated term infants, prediction of neurological outcome based on clinical criteria alone is not always reliable. We have used changes in tissue density on CT scan (known to represent hypoxic-ischaemic injury) as an adjunct to clinical examination to assess the severity of cerebral injury. The study population comprised 56 term newborns with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy. Scans were performed with a General Electric 8800 scanner and classified as Normal, Patchy, Diffuse or Global according to the extent of areas of decreased density (DD). These were correlated with neurological outcome (i.e. Normal, Minor handicap, Major handicap, Indefinite or Death). Death or major handicap occurred in only two of 14 infants in the combined Normal or Patchy DD groups but in 26 of 29 in the combined Diffuse or Global groups. This correlation was highly significant (p less than 0.0005). 13 classified as Indefinite were normal at age three to 10 months but were excluded from analysis because of the short follow-up. The data demonstrate that CT scanning is a valuable adjunct to neurological examination for assessment of cerebral injury in the asphyxiated term infant.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Pseudotumor Cerebri / Mary B. CONNOLLY in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 34-12 (December 1992)

CONNOLLY, Auteur ; Kevin FARRELL, Auteur ; Alan HILL, Auteur ; Olof FLODMARK, Auteur Année de publication : 1992 Article en page(s) : p.1091-1094 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Imagerie par résonance magnétique dans la pseudotumeur cérébrale La physiopathologie de la pseudotumeur cérébrale n'est pas claire mais pourrait être reliée à une anomalie due au transport hydrique dans le cerveau. Les auteurs ont pratiqué des IRM chez sept enfants avec pseudotumeur cérébrale; l'intensité du signal dans la substance blanche était normale chez tous les patients. Les données suggèrent que ce contenu hydrique cérébral péri-ventriculaire n'est pas accru de façon marquée chez les enfants porteurs de pseudotumeur cérébrale. Les auteurs se demandent si cela ne pourrait s'expliquer par un équilibre entre une résistance accrue à la circulation du liquide céphalo-rachidien et un accroissement de la raideur cérébrale, apparaissant comme une conséquence de l'accroissement du volume sanguin cérébral et/ou de la pression interstitielle.

Thin ribs on chest X-ray: a useful sign in the differential diagnosis of the floppy newborn / John P. OSBORNE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-3 (June 1983)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 25-3 (June 1983) . - p.343-345 Titre : Thin ribs on chest X-ray: a useful sign in the differential diagnosis of the floppy newborn Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : John P. OSBORNE, Auteur ; E. Gordon MURPHY, Auteur ; Alan HILL, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.343-345 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The significance of thin ribs among 26 newborns diagnosed as having neuromuscular disease is discussed. 19 had a chest X-ray. Thin ribs were observed in three of seven with congenital myotonic dystrophy, in two of four with myotubular myopathy and in one of five with spinal muscular atrophy. The ribs were normal in one case of nemaline myopathy and two cases of non-specific myopathy. Polyhydramnios was recorded in four of the six cases with thin ribs. Ventilatory support frequently was required for these infants. The observation of thin ribs on X-ray is highly suggestive of neonatal neuromuscular disease, and is neither specific for nor invariable in congenital myotonic dystrophy.
