HELP! (I don't expect a diagnosis...I just want professional opinions... )
I am the mother of a baby boy due to be born on June 13, but was born at 26wks gestation on March 12 his complications included Sepsis(gram pos cocci), RDS, Apnea, Anemia, Heart murmur(no longer heard), 4 blood transfusions, On ventilator twice for 2 days, CPAP for 2days, IVH Grade III(resolved), I was flat on my back for 3 wks in hospital before he came and was given Magnesium Sulfate each time I was in labor(3x) I had 3 Steroid shots on first onset of labor. I had Endometritis and Chorioamnionitis, Placenta Abrupted 10%.......Anyway, my baby is 3months now(adjusted age 0)...He had what looked like seizures this weekend and was admitted to hospital to do an EEG and MRI....The EEG appears normal...The MRI report says WHITE MATTER IS THINNING MORE POSTERIOR IN CORPUS CALLOSUM IN SOME AREAS....ACUTE THINNING OF POSTERIOR BODY IN SPLENIUM OF CORPUS CALLOSUM...MILD PROMINENCE OF POSTERIOR BODIES OF LATERAL VENTRICLES....BOTH OF THE ABOVE MAY INDICATE OF PERIVENTRICULAR WHITE MATTER LOSS..NO HIGH SIGNAL IS IDENTIFIED IN PERIVENTRICULAR WHITE MATTER......sooo My question is...Is this consistent with PVL, Agenesis of Corpus Callosum, CP, a result of the Grade III IVH he had 3mo. ago, or nothing at all? I appreciate ALL opinions!
Thank you,
