CLINICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL FEATURES OF WHITE MATTER DAMAGE IN PRETERM BABIES
Long-term neurological sequels in preterm babies in great cases are determinated by injury of immature cerebral white matter. There are several known forms of the white matter injure including noncystes forms. The noncystes forms of the white matter injury are general cerebral pathology in the preterm babies with low gestation age (born before 28 weeks). The main causes of the white matter damage related with extent of the cerebral myelination, the modification of cerebral immature cells, glial cells ability to prolong proliferations, migration and activity for exposed damaging factors as well.
