We report serial magnetic resonance (MR) and sonographic behavior of globus pallidus in 5 preterm and 3 term infants with kernicterus and describe the clinical context in very low birth weight preterm infants. ![]() Govaert, Paul Lequin, Maarten Swarte, Renate Robben, Simon De Coo, René Weisglas-Kuperus, Nynke De Rijke, Yolanda Sinaasappel, Maarten Barkovich, James PMID:12483018Ĭhanges in globus pallidus with (pre)term kernicterus.

T2 weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging showed high signal lesions involving bilateral globus pallidus. After returning home, the patient showed changes in personality characterized by abulia, indifference, and indecisiveness. A previously healthy 49-yr-old Korean patient, after ascent to 4,700 m, suffered symptoms consistent with AMS. ![]() Despite the numerous reports of AMS, few studies have reported pallidal lesions associated with altitude sickness.
