Hemiparetic Cerebral Palsy: Etiological Risk Factors And Neuroimaging
The purpose of this paper, which was conducted on 175 children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy (H-CP), was to verify the etiological risk period for this disease. Etiological risk factors (ERF) were detected through anamnesis: 23% in the prenatal period, 18% in the perinatal period and 59% of the patients the period was undefined (ERF in the prenatal and perinatal period was 41% and no ERF was 18% of the cases. The computerized tomographic scan (CT) and MRI were performed on all the patients, who were then classified according to their etiopathogenic data: CT1 = normal (18%); CT 2= unilateral ventricular enlargement (25%); CT 3 = cortical/ subcortical cavities (28%); CT4= hemispheric atrophy and other findings (14%); CT 5 = malformations (15%). CT 5 was associated with physical malformations beyond the central nervous system and with prenatal ERF's , while CT 2 was associated with the perinatal ERF's, mainly in premature births. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed on 57 patients and demonstrated a good degree of concordance with the CT. Etiology remained undefined in only 37% of the cases after neuroimaging was related to ERF. A high perinatal RF frequency (59%) was observed and emphasized the need for special care during this period.5912934Kuban, K.C.K., Leviton, A., Cerebral palsy (1994) N Engl J Med, 330, pp. 188-195Griffiths, M., Clegg, M., (1988) Cerebral Palsy: Problems and Practice, , London: Souvenir PressUvebrant, P., Hemiplegic cerebral palsy: Aetiology and outcome (1988) Acta Paediatr Scand, (345 SUPPL.), pp. 1-100Nelson, K.B., Ellenberg, J.H., Antecedents of cerebral palsy: Multivariate analysis of risk (1986) N Engl J Med, 315, pp. 81-86Blair, E., Stanley, F.J., Intrapartum asphyxia: A rare cause of cerebral palsy (1988) J Pediatr, 112, pp. 515-519Barkovich, A.J., Destructive brain disorders of childhood (1995) Pediatric Neuroimaging. 2.ed., pp. 107-175. , Barkovich AJ.

Neuropsychomotor Development Of Infants Born Of Mothers With Gestational Hypertension [desenvolvimento Neuropsicomotor De Lactentes Filhos De Mães Que Apresentaram Hipertensão Arterial Na Gestação]
Introduction: Gestational hypertension is a major cause of maternal death in our country and may be associated with neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy with serious neurological complications. Objective: To correlate gestational hypertension with risk factors of neuropsychomotor development in infants. Method: This was a prospective study. We evaluated 30 consecutive infants born of mothers with gestational hypertension. The following risk factors were considered: small for gestational age; fetal asphyxia; age of onset of gestational hypertension; term/preterm newborn; Apgar scores; central cyanosis; O2 mask; meconium. The study followed two steps. In the first step, newborns underwent neurological examination soon after birth (48-72 hours of life). In the second step, children underwent another neurological assessment between 7 and 15 months of life. Results: Six newborns presented neurological signs on the first evaluation. The only risk factor that showed a significant correlation with the neurologic examination was the Apgar score. Other risk factors did not show any correlation. All children evaluated on the second step of the study showed normal neurological development and examination, which did not allow any correlation with risk factors. Conclusion: Our data suggest that gestational hypertension per se is not sufficient to cause fetal neurological impairment.633 A632636Resende, J., Doença hipertensiva específica da gestação: Pré-eclâmpsia e eclâmpsia (1995) Obstetrícia, 22, pp. 598-642Impey, L., Greenwood, C., Sheil, O., MacQuillan, K., Reynolds, M., Redman, C., The relation between pre-eclampsia at term and neonatal encephalopahty (2001) Arch Dis Child, 85, pp. 170-172Rufo, M.C., Palencia, R.L., Encefalopatia hipóxico-isquémica del recién nacido a término: Recientes avances, marcadores de hipoxia y opciones terapéuticas (2000) Rev Neurol, 31, pp. 617-623Marques-Dias, M.J., Encefalopatias hipóxico-isquêmicas e hemorragias intracranianas (1999) Neurologia Infanhl, pp. 667-674. , Diament A, Cypel S (eds).

Clinical And Videofluoroscopic Evaluation Of Swallowing In Patients With Spastic Tetraparetic Cerebral Palsy And Athetosic Cerebral Palsy [evaluación Clínica Y Videofluoroscópica De La Deglución En Pacientes Con Parálisis Cerebral Tetraparésica Espástica Y Atetósica]
Aim. To evaluate and to compare the findings of oral and pharyngeal phases of swallowing in children with both spastic tetraparetic cerebral palsy (STCP) and with athetosic cerebral palsy (ACP). Patients and methods. 11 children were evaluated, with their ages ranging from 10 months to 8 years old, through both clinical assessment and videofluoroscopic evaluation. Results. The children with STCP were more involved at the neurologic, clinical and speech-language and hearing aspects. At the oral phases all the children had presented some involvement. At the pharyngeal phases the clinical signs of aspiration were identified in 10 children. It was observed aspirations in 80% of children with STCP and in 67% with ACP. The changes on swallowing were similar in both cerebral palsy groups, but the performance of the children with STCP was inferior. Conclusion. The videofluoroscopy was an important method which makes possible the verification of aspirations, helping the professionals at the therapeutical program for these children. © 2006, Revista de Neurología.428462465Chen, M.Y.M., Peele, V.N., Donati, D., Ott, D.J., Donofrio, P.D., Gelfand, D.W., Clinical and fluoroscopic evaluation of swallowing in 41 patients with neurologic disease (1992) Gastrointest Radiol, 17, pp. 95-98Logemann, J.A., Swallowing physiology and pathophysiology (1988) Otolaryngol Clin North Am, 21, pp. 613-623Furkim, A.M., (1999) Deglutição de crianças com paralisia cerebral do tipo tetraparética espástica: Avaliação clínica fonoaudiológica e análise videofluoroscó pica, , São Paulo: Universidade Federal de São Paulo;Furkim AM, Silva RG.

Diskitis In Children [discite Em Criança]
The authors report clinical review and radiographic appearance of children diagnosed with diskitis. The ambiguous clinical manifestation of diskitis characterized by vague symptoms of pain, mainly in nursing and preschool children, are emphasized. The awareness and recognition by Pediatrician, Neurologist, Orthopedic and Radiologist of the entity of diskitis, is very important for early diagnostic and treatment. Bone scan, CT and MRI are most useful tests for diagnosis, of typical and atypical cases.3239193Coventry, M.B., Ghormley, R.K., Kernhan, J.W., The intervertebral disc: Its microscopic anatomy and pathology (1945) J Bone Joint Surg, 27, pp. 105-112. , AMCrawford, A.H., Kucharzyk, D.W., Ruda, Smitherman, J.R., Diskitis in children (1991) Clin Orthop, 266, pp. 70-79Fisher, G.W., Popich, G.A., Sullivan, D.E., Mayfield, G., Mazat, B.A., Patterson, P.H., Diskitis: A prospective diagnostic analysis (1978) Pediatrics, 62, pp. 543-548Heller, R.M., Szalay, E.A., Green, N.E., Horev, G.D., Kirchner, S.D., Disc space infection in children: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (1988) Radiol Clin North Am, 26, pp. 207-209Kemp, H.B.S., Johns, D.L., Mcalister, J., Godlee, J.N., Pyogenic infections occurring primarily in intervertebral disc (1973) J Bone Joint Surg, 55 B, pp. 698-714King, H.A., Back pain in children (1986) Pediatr Clin North Am, 31, pp. 1083-1086Lacour, M., Duarte, M., Beutler, A., Suter, S., Osteoarticular infections due to Kingella kingae in children (1991) Eur J Pediatr, 150, pp. 612-618Leahy, A.L., Fogarty, E.E., Fitzgerald, R.J., Regan, B.F., Discitis as a cause of abdominal pain in children (1984) Surgery, 95, pp. 412-414Melenaus, M.B., Discitis - An inflammation affecting the intervertebral discs in children (1964) J Bone Joint Surg, 46 B, pp. 16-23Moura-Ribetro, M.V.L., Fernandez, V.L.M., Piovesana, A.M.S.G., Guerreiro, M.M., Mouraribeiro, R., Gonçalves, V.M.G., Discite em crianças: Estudo de oito casos (1994) Arq Neuropsiquiatr, 52, pp. 535-538Petrus, M., Range, F., Clement, J.L., Prere, M.F., Ibanez, M.H., Netter, J.C., Spondylodiscite cervicale à Kingella kingae - A propos d'un cas (1990) An Pediatr, 37, pp. 170-172Sartoris, D.J., Moskowitz, P.S., Kaufman, R.A., Ziprkowski, M.N., Berger, P.E., Childhood diskitis computed tomographic finding (1983) Radiology, 149, pp. 701-707Scoles, P.V., Quinn, T.P., Intervertebral discitis in children and adolescents (1982) Clin Orthop, 162, pp. 31-36Sulivan, C.R., Symmonds, R.E., Disk infection and abdominal pain (1974) JAMA, 188, pp. 655-657Wenger, D.R., Bobechko, W.P., Gilday, D.L., The spectrum of intervertebral disc-space infection in children (1978) J Bone Joint Surg Am, 60 A, pp. 100-10
Cerebrovascular Disease In Children: Ii. Clinical Aspects In 42 Cases [doença Cerebrovascular Na Infância: Ii. Aspectos Clínicos Em 42 Casos]
We report the findings recorded in 42 children suffering cerebrovascular disease and assisted at the Hospital das Clínicas FCM-UNlCAMP, over a 8 years period (January 1990 until April 1998). The ischemic type was the most common, and involvement of the middle cerebral artery, sudden onset of clinical manifestation with seizures and motor disability were more common in early aged children. Motor sequelae predominated in the follow-up of these children.573 A594598Shoenberg, B.S., Mellinger, J.F., Shoenberg, D.G., Cerebrovascular disease in infants and children: A study of incidence, clinical features, and survival (1978) Neurology, 28, pp. 763-768Riela, A.R., Roach, E.S., Etiology of stroke in children (1993) J Child Neurol, 8, pp. 201-220Roach, E.S., Ariela, A.R., (1955) Pediatric Cerebrovascular Disorders. 2.Ed., , New York: FuturaMoura-Ribeiro, M.V.L., Rocha, C.M., Fernandes, W.L.M., Guerreiro, M.M., Meningites bacterianas agudas: Complicações vasculares (1993) Arq Neuropsiquiatr, 51, pp. 507-510Moura-Ribeiro, M.V.L., Pessoto, M.A., Marba, S.T.M., Cerebrovascular disease in neonates (1999) Arq Neuropsiquiatr, 57, pp. 84-87Moura-Ribeiro, M.V.L., (1988) Doença Cerebrovascular em Crianças e Adolescentes, pp. 97-102. , Gagliardi RJ, Reimão R (eds), São Paulo: Lemos EditorialPark, Y.D., Belman, A.L., Kim, T.S., Stroke in pediatric acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (1990) Ann Neurol, 28, pp. 303-311Chiun, C., Delong, G.R., Heinz, E.R., Intracranial fibromuscular dysplasia in a 5 year old child (1996) Pediatr Neurol, 14, pp. 262-264Aylett, S.F., Britton, L., Souza, C.M.P., Down syndrome and moyamoya disease: Presentation with subarachnoid hemorrhage (1996) Pediatr Neurol, 14, pp. 259-261Pavlakis, S.G., Bello, J., Prohovnik, I., Brain infarction in sickle cell anemia: Magnetic resonance imaging correlates (1988) Ann Neurol, 23, pp. 125-130Hess, D.C., Adams, R.J., Nichols, F.T., Sickle cell anemia and other hemoglobinopathies (1991) Semin Neurol, 11, pp. 314-328Arita, F.N., (1998) Acidente Vascular Cerebral em Crianças com Doença Falciforme, , Tese.
