“…PVL is also the most common cause of CP in preterm infants (13). Abnormal MRI was observed in 88% of children with CP, and the vast majority of these abnormalities were white matter abnormalities including increase in intensity on T2-weighted sequences, volume loss, and irregular dilatation of lateral ventricles (14).…”

ORIGINAL ARTICLE PURPOSE Pineal cysts are common incidental findings during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations. The etiology of pineal cyst development is still unclear. We aimed to determine whether there is an association between periventricular leukomalacia and pineal cyst prevalence. METHODSClinical and MRI data of 201 patients with periventricular leukomalacia (110 female, 91 male; mean age, 6 years; range, 2-18 years) and 687 control patients (355 female, 332 male; mean age, 6 years¸ range, 2-18 years) who did not have any evidence of periventricular leukomalacia were independently evaluated by two radiologists for presence or absence of pineal cyst. RESULTSPineal cysts were detected in 32.3% of the study group (65/201) and 8.4% of the control group (58/687) (P < 0.001). Patients with periventricular leukomalacia were more likely to have a pineal cyst. In terms of pineal cyst detection on MRI, interobserver reliability was high between the two radiologists. CONCLUSIONThe prevalence of pineal cysts is higher in patients with periventricular leukomalacia. We suggest that an ischemic process may have a role in the etiopathogenesis of pineal cyst development.

“…ХАРАКТЕРНЫЕ ИЗМЕНЕНИЯ ГОЛОВНОГО МОЗГА ПРИ ПОСТГИПОКСИЧЕСКИХ СОСТОЯНИЯХ И ДЕТСКОМ ЦЕРЕБРАЛЬНОМ ПАРАЛИЧЕ, ВЫЯВЛЯЕМЫЕ ПО ДАННЫМ МАГНИТНО-РЕЗОНАНСНОЙ ТОМОГРАФИИ В настоящее время методы нейровизуализации активно используют для оценки структурных изменений головного мозга у детей с ДЦП и постгипоксическими состояниями [28,29]. В рутинной клинической практике наиболее часто применяют МРТ в стандартных режимах, позволяющую определить при ДЦП основные структур-ные изменения -участки лейкомаляции и повреждения серого вещества, ишемические изменения, мальформа-ции и пороки развития, диффузную и локальную атрофию, изменения ликворопроводящей системы.…”

“…1 Major reviews of the literature support this practice guideline. [2][3][4] Korzeniewski et al 2 concluded that neuroradiologic imaging modalities are making significant contributions to our understanding of CP. However, there are significant inconsistencies in descriptions of radiologic findings.…”

“…This was acknowledged by the Surveillance of Cerebral Palsy in Europe network, which developed a recommended standardized method for reporting brain MR imaging results. 5,6 Arnfield et al 4 investigated the relationship between the brain structure on MR imaging and motor outcomes in children with CP by reviewing the related literature. They found a relationship between the type of brain lesion as seen on MR imaging and 2 clinical outcomes: Gross Motor Functional Classification System (GMFCS) 7,8 and type of CP.…”
