Patient's question:
No shift in the midline of the brain, no abnormal bone changes in the skull, diagnosed as underdeveloped brain. Experts, is my son's condition serious? Does it require specific treatment? Can he receive the Japanese encephalitis vaccine? Urgent! Thank you!Doctor's answer:
The child has mild brain developmental disorder and brain hypoxia-ischemia. Therefore, any condition that can obstruct blood circulation and gas exchange between the mother and fetus, or lead to neonatal arterial hypotension and venous congestion, may cause brain ischemia-hypoxia, resulting in brain damage and leaving behind cerebral palsy. The causes include:Maternal factors: such as pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, heart failure, severe bleeding, anemia, shock, or drug abuse and overdose;
Placental abnormalities: such as placental abruption, placenta previa, placental infarction, or placental dysfunction, etc.
