Rationale:
Neonatal cerebral infarction can be focal or widespread, clinically silent or neurologically catastrophic, embolic or thrombotic, prenatalor postnatal, and hemorrhagic or occlusive.
Patient Concerns:
A neonatal was diagnosed with neonatal cerebral infarction after birth.
Diagnoses:
A large area of cerebral infarction was found through brain computed tomography and cranial magnetic resonance imaging examinations.
Interventions:
The child is restricted from fluids, and dehydration reduces intracranial pressure.
Outcomes:
Emiparesis may be absent in the neonatal period. However, over the next several months, an asymmetry of left hemiplegia may gradually become evident.
Lessons:
At present we cannot accurately predict which infants with neonatal stroke will have significantly abnormal language development. Therefore, the most important thing for the patient is to have regular follow-up visits at the outpatient clinic, and if necessary, to engage in timely rehabilitation exercise training.
