Abstract:
During 2 years from 1998 to 1999, 76 pediatric patients underwent brain CT imaging at the Pediatric Institute. Patients aged 30-60 days and admitted with severe anemia (average of Hb 6.5+/-1.5g%). Some features of cerebral-meningeal damage in patients with cerebral-meningeal hemorrhage were showed. The most common types are subarachnoid hemorrhage (91.9%), subdural hemorrhage (74.3%), brain tissue hemorrhage (52.7%), cerebral ventricular enlargment (35.1%), lateral cerebral ventricular compression (72.4%), midle-way displacement (82.6%), cerebral oedema (96.5%). Cerebral- meningeal damage combinations included submeningeal hemorrhage alone (15.8%), subduralmeningeal hemorrhage 35.5%, submeningeal-cerebral tissue hemorrhage (48.7%).
