Abstract Objective Isolated agenesis of the corpus callosum on fetal ultrasound has a varied prognosis. Microarray and exome sequencing (ES) might aid in prenatal counseling. Method This study includes 25 fetuses with apparently isolated complete (cACC) ultrasound. All cases were offered single nucleotide polymorphism array. Complementary ES was postnatally selected cases. Clinical physical neurodevelopmental follow‐up collected. Results Eighteen opted for array testing, which detected...

To assess outcome after neonatal perforator stroke in the largest cohort to date.Survivors from a of children diagnosed with using cranial ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging were eligible for inclusion. Recovery and Recurrence Questionnaire score, presence cerebral palsy (CP), crude assessed, specifically (1) ability walk independently, (2) participation regular education, (3) epilepsy.Thirty-seven patients (20 males, 17 females) aged 3 14 years (mean age 8y) included study: isolated...

Early recognition of seizures in neonates secondary to pathogenic variants potassium or sodium channel coding genes is crucial, as these are often resistant commonly used anti-seizure medications but respond well blockers. Recently, a characteristic ictal amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) pattern was described with KCNQ2-related epilepsy. We report similar aEEG caused by SCN2A- and KCNQ3-pathogenic variants, conventional EEG (cEEG) descriptions.International multicentre...

Abstract Background An increasing number of children are suffering from brain damage-related visual processing dysfunctions (VPD). There is currently a lack evidence-based intervention methods that can be used early in development. We developed protocol suitable 1 year age. The structured, comprehensive and individually adaptive, paired with quantitative outcome assessments. Our aim to investigate the effectiveness this first program for young (a risk of) VPD. Methods This single-blind,...

Introduction: Children with early brain damage or dysfunction are at risk of developing cerebral visual impairment (CVI), including processing dysfunctions (VPD), which currently remain largely undetected until school age. Our aim was to systematically screen for possible VPD in children born very extremely preterm from 1 2 years corrected age (CA) and evaluate the effectiveness referral. Method: We included N = 48 < 30 weeks year CA. They underwent a two-step screening based on (1)...

Apneic neonatal seizures can present as apparent life-threatening events. We report a newborn with unexplained episodes of apnea associated cyanosis and desaturation, starting on the first day postpartum. Biochemical tests were normal. Central nervous system infections well abnormalities upper airways cardiovascular excluded. Brain monitoring using amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) was inconclusive. Continuous video EEG revealed epileptic originating from left temporal...
