Visual impairment and periventricular leukomalacia in children: A systematic review
2023, Research in Developmental DisabilitiesBrain microstructural antecedents of visual difficulties in infants born very preterm
2022, NeuroImage: ClinicalCitation Excerpt :Along with alterations found in the optic radiations, we observed diminished FD, FC, and FDC of tracts across the dorsal and ventral streams, suggesting that both pathways may be impacted. Deficits in dorsal and ventral visual stream processing have also been observed in preterm children with PVL and cerebral palsy, further indicating a widespread atypical processing in higher-order visual impairments (Cioni et al., 1997; Fazzi et al., 2004, 2007). ROP is a disease characterized by abnormal growth of vasculature due to altered oxygen concentrations and blood flow in preterm birth.

2018, CortexCitation Excerpt :Depending on the size and location of the PVL necrosis, a wide spectrum of clinical symptoms can be observed, from severe visual impairment, combined with cerebral palsy and mental retardation to mild visuo-motor impairments and normal intelligence (for a review see: Jacobson & Dutton, 2000). Previous studies have described visual-perceptual impairment in these subjects, such as restriction of visual field, deficit in crowding, visual integration (identification of whole figures from incomplete visual information), object recognition and motion perception (Cioni et al., 1997; Fazzi et al., 2004; Guzzetta et al., 2009; Jacobson, Ek, Fernell, Flodmark, & Broberger, 1996; Morrone et al., 2008; Stiers, De Cock, & Vandenbussche, 1998). Here we show that few of these children can also have mirror orientation agnosia that can greatly impact on their everyday life.
