Cerebellar Growth Impairment Characterizes School-Aged Children Born Preterm without Perinatal Brain Lesions [PEDIATRICS]
CONCLUSIONS:
The results of our study show that perinatal influences that are not primarily neurologic are still able to disturb long-term neurodevelopment, particularly of the developing cerebellum. Including the cerebellum in future neuroprotective strategies seems therefore essential.
