A retrospective analysis of the computer tomographic scans (CT) in 68 patients with juvenile hemiplegia was done. There was predominance of males (60%) over females, as well as left-sided lesions (57%). The CT findings were normal in 15% with atrophic changes in 34%, low attenuation areas of fluid density in 46% and 2.9% (two cases) with tumours. Typical areas of infarction following vascular injuries could be identified in 15% of cases. Six out of 8 calcifications were associated with tuberculoma of the brain. It is noted that cystic changes are the end-results of most infarctions, infections and other diseases within the brain. Therefore, CT as a diagnostic tool is efficacious in determining the anatomical site of lesion, but incapable of elucidating the aetiological basis of such a lesion.
对68例青少年偏瘫患者的计算机断层扫描（CT）进行了回顾性分析。男性（60%）多于女性，左侧病变（57%）占优势。CT检查结果正常者占15%，萎缩性改变者占34%，液体密度的低密度区占46%，有肿瘤者占2.9%（2例）。15%的病例可识别出血管损伤后典型的梗死区域。8处钙化中有6处与脑结核瘤有关。值得注意的是，囊性改变是脑内大多数梗死、感染和其他疾病的最终结果。因此，CT作为一种诊断工具，在确定病变的解剖部位方面是有效的，但无法阐明此类病变的病因基础。
