Objective: To compare specific fetal cranial and cerebral findings indicative of prenatal intracranial hypotension (PICH) syndrome between open and closed cephaloceles.
Methods: Two groups of fetuses with cephalocele who underwent magnetic resonance imaging scan were selected based on the defect coverage: covered ("closed cephalocele" group, n = 4) and uncovered by skin ("open cephalocele" group, n = 8). The presence of signs associated with PICH syndrome was evaluated and findings compared between groups.
Objective: A narrative overview of regional academic research collaborations to address the increasing burden and gaps in care for patients at risk of, and who suffer from, stroke in Latin America (LA).
Materials And Methods: A summary of experiences and knowledge of the local situation is presented. No systematic literature review was performed.
