Hippocampal sclerosis in children younger than 2 years.
Background: Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is rarely considered as a diagnosis in children younger than 2 years.Objective: To describe imaging features in conjunction with clinical information in patients with hippocampal sclerosis who are younger than 2 years.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively r...

Clinically, all children had an infectious trigger.Conclusion: It is necessary for radiologists to consider HS in children with certain clinical features to plan an MRI protocol that is appropriate for detection of hippocampal pathology. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
