Prenatal Diagnosis of Hydranencephaly in a Newborn of Psychic Mother with Olanzapine and Paroxetine Exposure During The Pregnancy
Hydranencephaly is an extremely rare congenital anomaly of the central nervous system, characterized by the almost total
absence of the bilateral cerebral hemispheres and replaced by cerebrospinal fluid. Almost all cases are sporadic with an
incidence of less than 1 per 10,000 births and a very poor prognosis. The exact main cause is still unknown, but
hydranencephaly is usually found to develop secondarily to the occlusion of cerebral arteries above the supraclinoid level.
We report the case of a full-term female infant with hydranencephaly diagnosed at 28 weeks of gestation by routine
antenatal intrauterine ultrasonograph
Application of CCASNS with iVNS in The Treatment of Cerebral Palsy with DrugRefractory Epilepsy
The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and feasibility of common carotid artery sympathetic nerve network
