Patient's question:
Baby was born 27 days ago, jaundice level measured at 340. Breastfeeding was stopped for 3 days, and after taking Yinzhihuang and probiotics for 3 days, the level did not decrease. Blue light treatment was started, and the baby was hospitalized for 4 days, after which the level dropped to 108 and was discharged. The doctor recommended a cranial MRI, the results of which are shown in the image. The newborn's neurological score is 33, as shown in the image. The doctor said there are severe abnormalities and that inpatient rehabilitation is necessary (except for brainstem evoked potential, which is normal). Please advise the doctor, what are the findings of the cranial MRI results? Is inpatient rehabilitation necessary?Doctor's answer:
The continuous increase and expansion of basal ganglia VRS are closely related to various different neurological diseases. Currently, the etiology is not yet fully clear and may be associated with factors such as congenital developmental abnormalities of brain tissue, intracranial infection, brain tissue expansion, brain lymphatic drainage, hydrocephalus, kernicterus, and hereditary factors across generations! It is recommended to further investigate the etiology, implement early brain rehabilitation functional training, conduct regular health check-ups, and closely monitor the baby's growth and development!
