    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Neonatal arterial cerebral infarction can be detected using computed tomography (CT) scans, even if initial scans are normal. Early diagnosis is crucial for managing these serious infant brain injuries.

    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal neurology
    • Pediatric radiology
    • Vascular neurology

    Background:

    • Cerebral infarction in neonates is a significant cause of neurological deficits.
    • Arterial origin infarcts are less commonly diagnosed in the neonatal period.

    Observation:

    • Five neonates with large cerebral infarctions of arterial origin were identified.
    • Seizures were present in four neonates within the first day of life.
    • Computed tomography (CT) scans diagnosed infarcts between 5-12 days, with earlier scans being normal.

    Findings:

    • One premature infant was asymptomatic, with a hemorrhagic infarct also detected by cranial ultrasound.
    • Birth trauma was noted in three infants; severe asphyxia in one.
    • Two infants showed positive outcomes at one year of age.

    Implications:

    • Properly timed CT examinations can now recognize neonatal cerebral infarcts.
    • This improves the diagnosis and potential management of arterial infarcts in newborns.
    • Delayed diagnosis of neonatal stroke may have been common previously.
