hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy

Newborn who

experienced prolonged labor. Axial (above), coronal (below left) and sagittal (below right) CT without contrast of the brain show a large low density fluid collection in the subcutaneous tissues of the scalp that crosses sutures and is seen to surround the skull on the coronal view. Intracranially, there is diffuse loss of gray matter-white matter differentiation secondary to diffuse cerebral edema.The diagnosis was caput succedaneum in a patient with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

Newborn with

failure to progress during delivery due to dystocia who is now apneic. Axial CT without contrast of the brain shows a cresenteric high-density fluid collection in the subcutaneous tissues of the right scalp that crosses suture lines and a cresenteric low-density fluid collection in the subcutaneous tissues of the left scalp that crosses suture lines. Intracranially, there is diffuse loss of gray matter-white matter differentiation secondary to diffuse cerebral edema.The diagnosis was a left caput succedaneum and a right subgaleal hematoma in a patient with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

Anoxic brain

injury following a hanging. Note the loss of grey white matter differentiation and small ventricles due to brain swelling.

is part of a series which can be scrolled interactively with the mousewheel or mouse dragging. This is done by using Template:Imagestack. The series is found in the category Profound hypoxia case 001. Computertomographie des Schädels bei einem Patienten nach generalisierter Hypoxie: Besonders die stoffwechselintensiven und somit hypoxieempfindlichen Regionen wie Globus pallidum, Hippocampus und auch die Hirnschenkel sind betroffen. Auch die Mark-Rinden-Differenzierung ist deutlich vermindert.

des Schädels bei einem jungen Patienten nach generalisierter Hypoxie: Die stoffwechselintensiven und somit hypoxieempfindlichen Regionen hier vor allem Globus pallidum sind betroffen und somit deutlich hypodens.

Acute carbon

monoxide poisoning and hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury. Diffuse hypoattenuation of gray matter in cerebral cortex and effacement of cerebral sulci, obliteration of the fourth ventricle and the basal cisterns.

Acute carbon
