A "bright thalamus" is not uncommonly observed in cranial sonograms of asphyxiated neonates, but not those of older infants. Three infants, aged 9-14 months, developed acute onset of seizures and disturbance of consciousness after a minor prodromal illness. Bilateral thalamic infarcts were demonstrated by ultrasonography and CT. One patient expired from causes not directly related to the infarcts; the other two survived with severe neurological sequelae.
“丘脑明亮征”在窒息新生儿的头颅超声检查中并不少见,但在较大婴儿中则未观察到。三名年龄在9至14个月的婴儿,在轻微前驱疾病后出现急性癫痫发作和意识障碍。超声检查和CT显示双侧丘脑梗死。一名患者因与梗死无直接关系的原因死亡;另外两名患者存活,但有严重的神经后遗症。
