Computed tomography in global cerebral cortical ischemia of the neonate and young infant.
The authors have encountered three unique neonates with global cerebral cortical ischemia. The pathogenesis and computed tomography scans of these patients who sustained profound hypoxemia is described. Follow-up computed tomography scans in each case demonstrated generalized loss of cortical substance.
