BACKGROUND: The aim of our study was to analyze neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants with TPE.
PATIENTS: 46 preterm infants with a birthweight (BW) < or = 1500 g were included in the study. They all had TPE in parieto-occipital location (some combined with frontal flares). Exclusion criteria were PVL II-IV, intraventricular hemorrhage, asphyxia and isolated frontal TPE.
METHOD: We analyzed ultrasound scans (1992 - 2001) of patients with TPE (diameter > 1 cm, visible in both sagittal and coronal planes, duration > 7 days), and neurological follow-up visits (date of demission, corrected age of 4, 8, 12 months, and after that every 2 years until 6 years of age) regarding the neurodevelopmental outcome. We devided the patients in group 1 (duration of TPE 8 - 14 days) and group 2 (duration of TPE > 14 days) and then analyzed the groups regarding neurodevelopmental disorders and factors increasing the risk of occurrence of TPE.
RESULTS: From 1992 - 2001 578 children < or = 1500 g were admitted at our department. 48 patients (8,3 %) fulfilled the entry criteria, 2 of them died, so 46 were included in the study. In group 1 (10 patients) the median gestational age (GA) was 28 weeks (range 25 - 31), median BW 1075 g (range 685 - 1430), 6 children were neurologically unimpaired, one developed a motor handicap, and 3 a psychomotor retardation. In group 2 (36 patients) the median GA was 28 weeks (range 25 - 35), median BW 1034,5 g (range 540 - 1470), 24 patients were neurologically unimpaired, 7 developed a motor handicap, and 5 a psychomotor retardation. No statistical difference was found between the groups neither in neurodevelopmental outcome nor factors increasing the risk of the occurrence of TPE.
CONCLUSIONS: Obviously, the finding of TPE is of clinical relevance already at a duration of only 7 days regarding later neurological development.
