Significance of isolated borderline ventriculomegaly

Child's Nervous System, 2019
Foetal ventriculomegaly (VM) is one of the most commonly diagnosed brain abnormalities. The aims of this study were to assess cases with isolated VM, describe the prenatal course and assess short- and long-term follow-up at the age of 2 years.We performed a retrospective analysis from our prenatal data base and included all children that were ...

Brain elasticity changes with ventriculomegaly

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1980
✓ The pressure-volume relationship of brain elasticity was determined in 32 patients during servo-controlled variable-rate lumbar infusions to measure net cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) absorptive capacity. Several indices were used to estimate ventricular size from computerized tomography scans.

Fetal ventriculomegaly: postnatal management

Child's Nervous System, 2011
It is the current status of fetal ventriculomegaly that although the technology for diagnosis is advanced, it does not have significant impact on the management outcome. Fetal ventriculomegaly is mainly treated after birth.We reviewed the literature and suggested policies of postnatal evaluation and surgical management of fetal hydrocephalus.

Dwarfism associated with prenatal ventriculomegaly

Prenatal Diagnosis, 1983
AbstractTwo infants with ventriculomegaly diagnosed by ultrasound during the third trimester of pregnancy were noted to have lethal short‐limbed dwarfing syndromes at birth. In one instance, a clinical suspicion of hydramnios and in the other follow‐up scan for placental localization revealed ventriculomegaly as an unexpected finding.

Leigh syndrome with progressive ventriculomegaly

Pediatric Neurology, 1994
A 6-month-old female infant was diagnosed with Leigh syndrome after an abnormal muscle specimen was obtained and after magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated characteristic cranial lesions. She presented with episodic hyperventilation, myoclonus, ophthalmoplegia, hypotonia, and elevation of lactate in the cerebrospinal fluid and blood.

Nonprogressive congenital unilateral ventriculomegaly

Pediatric Neurology, 1996
Congenital unilateral ventriculomegaly is a rare condition, usually caused by obstruction of the foramen of Monro. In the past, this condition required surgical intervention. We present a female newborn with nonprogressive unilateral ventriculomegaly which was initially detected by prenatal sonography. No surgical intervention was performed, and during

Ventriculomegaly in Childhood Bacterial Meningitis

Neuropediatrics, 1984
Sixty-seven of 125 children with bacterial meningitis had computerized tomography (CT) of the head. Ventriculomegaly was the most common abnormality on CT occurring in twenty-eight cases. Progressive enlargement of the ventricular system occurred without evidence of persistent increased intracranial pressure, although early in the illness increased ...

Current prognosis in fetal ventriculomegaly

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1992
✓ A review of 51 cases referred for evaluation of fetal ventriculomegaly revealed adequate follow-up data in 40 patients. Three of the fetuses were electively aborted and 37 were delivered. There were no cases of deathin utero. Of the 37 infants who were delivered, 26 (70%) were treated with shunt placement for neonatal hydrocephalus.

Neuroimaging of ventriculomegaly in the fetal period

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2012
Fetal cerebral ventriculomegaly (VM) is defined as an enlargement of the lateral ventricles of the developing fetal brain. It is diagnosed when the width of one or both lateral ventricles, measured at the level of the atrium, is ≥10 mm. VM is defined as mild when the atrial width is 10-15 mm and severe when >15 mm. VM is a non-specific sonographic sign

Obstructive ventriculomegaly.

Padiatrie und Padologie, 1986
Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) occurs primarily in premature infants, and post-hemorrhagic ventricular dilatation is a well-known complication in this age-group. Blood clots within the ventricle are diagnostic of ICH but not usually seen. In our case Real-Time Ultrasonography has proved to be very helpful to identify intraventricular hematomas and to ...
