Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy: Clinical Features Associated With Arterial Ischemic Stroke or Periventricular Venous Infarction

By Trish Domi, PhD et al

Conclusion

We determined clinical features associated with the 2 most typical forms of focal ischemic brain injury in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy, including mode of delivery emergency cesarean section, neonatal seizures and systemic thrombosis. These findings provide further insight and support for existing findings about focal brain injury patterns leading to hemiplegic cerebral palsy in children.
