Secuelas neurocognitivas de leucomalacia periventricular
Introducción: la leucomalacia periventricular (LPV) es una necrosis de la sustancia blanca que está ubicada dorsal y lateralmente a los ángulos externos de los ventrículos laterales.

Periventricular leucomalacia in neonates: Complications and sequelae [PDF]
Periventricular leucomalacia was examined in a total of 28 infants. These foci of infarction were attributed to episodes of failure of perfusion due to hypotension in a border zone between ventriculofugal and ventriculopetal circulations. We describe haemorrhage occurring into these infarctions as a complication occurring in 7 infants.

Nystagmus in periventricular leucomalacia [PDF]
Periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) is a lesion in the immature brain involving the optic radiation. Children with PVL have visual problems including crowding, visual field defects, strabismus, and visual perceptual/cognitive deficits, together with nystagmus.

Clinical risk factors and periventricular leucomalacia. [PDF]
Two hundred infants of below 1501 g at birth were regularly examined with real time ultrasound using a 7.5 MHz transducer. Abnormalities were categorized as periventricular haemorrhage (PVH) (n = 107) or periventricular leucomalacia (PVL), with or without PVH (n = 52). Of the group with PVL, 25 had the appearances of prolonged flare without cavitation.

Intraventricular haemorrhage and periventricular leucomalacia: ultrasound and autopsy correlation. [PDF]
The brains of 30 infants who died after at least one real time ultrasound scan were examined after fixation. The ultrasound diagnosis of either periventricular haemorrhage or periventricular leucomalacia was compared with the macroscopic and histological appearances.

Periventricular leucomalacia and neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants. [PDF]
During an 18 month period, 120 preterm infants of 34 weeks' gestation or less were prospectively examined for periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) by cerebral ultrasound. Neurological and developmental assessment was carried out at 18 months of age corrected for prematurity in 82 surviving neonates.

Delayed necrostatin-1s infusion attenuates cystic white matter injury in preterm fetal sheep [PDF]
Severe, cystic white matter injury (WMI) in preterm infants is associated with neurodevelopmental impairment. Strikingly, it often develops weeks after birth. In the present study we tested the hypothesis that necrotic programmed cell death, necroptosis,

IGF-1 Protects Neurons in the Cortex and Subventricular Zone in a Periventricular Leucomalacia Model. [PDF]
Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion affects early and mature neurons in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and cerebral cortex. Herein, we investigated the effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), a neurogenesis-promoting agent, on neurons in these regions in periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) model rats.Following right carotid artery ligation, the rats ...

Semiology of periventricular leucomalacia and its optic disc morphology [PDF]
Future studies that distinguish PVH from PVL may help to determine whether optic disc morphology reflects timing of injury Periventricular leucomalacia is an end stage lesion that results from hypoxic-ischaemic injury to the white matter of the developing brain.1 This condition occurs in 32% of premature infants1 and is believed to develop between the
