Patient's question:
A two-month-old infant has deepening of the sulci and fissures in the bilateral frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes, as well as enlargement of the posterior body of the bilateral ventricles. Based on the clinical findings, I would like to ask the doctor, how serious is the condition of the child?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby is just two months old. Clinical magnetic resonance imaging shows deepening of the sulci and fissures in both frontal and temporal lobes, as well as enlargement of the posterior parts of both ventricles, considered to be sequelae of ischemic and hypoxic encephalopathy. The baby's condition here is only a preliminary consideration. If the child shows clinical symptoms of abnormal muscle tone, it is necessary to use brain cell nutrition drugs and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Wish the baby a healthy growth!
