Periventricular leucomalacia and intraventricular haemorrhage in the preterm neonate. [PDF]
Arch Dis Child, 1986 Two hundred very low birthweight infants were prospectively scanned to ascertain the incidence of periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) and haemorrhage. Before collection of data, clear definitions of ultrasound abnormalities believed to represent PVL and intraventricular haemorrhage were described.

Plasma hypoxanthine: a marker for hypoxic-ischaemic induced periventricular leucomalacia? [PDF]
Arch Dis Child, 1992 Cerebral ischaemia of the immature brain may result in cavitating periventricular leucomalacia (PVL), an important association of cerebral palsy. Hypoxanthine measured by high performance liquid chromatography was used as a marker of peripartum hypoxia and ischaemia in 116 infants at risk of PVL. PVL was detected by ultrasound.

Motor pathway injury in patients with periventricular leucomalacia and spastic diplegia [PDF]
Brain, 2011 Periventricular leucomalacia has long been investigated as a leading cause of motor and cognitive dysfunction in patients with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. However, patients with periventricular leucomalacia on conventional magnetic resonance imaging do not always have motor dysfunction and preterm children without neurological abnormalities may ...

Optic disc morphology may reveal timing of insult in children with periventricular leucomalacia and/or periventricular haemorrhage. [PDF]
Br J Ophthalmol, 2003 To evaluate the relation between optic disc morphology and timing of periventricular white matter damage, defined as either periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) or periventricular haemorrhage (PVH), as estimated by neuroradiology.35 children with periventricular white matter damage who had had neuroradiology performed and ocular fundus photographs taken ...

Periventricular Leucomalacia and Seizure in Preterm Infants
Iranian Journal of Radiology, 2017 Background: Prematurity neuropathology can be categorized as: periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), white matter changes, and basal ganglion, cortex and thalamus disorders. These abnormalities may induce seizure in preterm neonate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between white matter abnormalities and seizure in 18 months preterm ...
