General Gross Description A contusion is a bruise of the brain. It appears as softening with punctate and linear hemorrhages in crowns of the gyri and can extend into the white matter in a triangular fashion with the apex in the white matter. Old contusions appear as brownish stained triangular defects in the cortex and underlying white matter. They occur on the orbital frontal surfaces and temporal poles in most instances.

Porencephaly is a pseudocyst secondary to an infarct or other destructive cerebral lesion(1). It is a rare condition probably caused by vascular occlusion resulting from an insult during fetal development or an injury occurring later in life. It is often associated with various ophthalmic and neurologic signs including visual field defects, abnormal pupillary responses, optic nerve hypoplasia, decreased vision, nystagmus, strabismus, hemi-in-attention, seizures and mental deficiencies(2). There are two types of porencephaly: ( i ) Type I is generally due to an antepartum intraparenchymal hemorrhage; and (

Porencephaly is an extremely rare disorder of the central nervous system involving cysts or cavities in a cerebral hemisphere. The cysts or cavities are usually the remnants of destructive lesions (due to stroke or infection), but are sometimes the result of abnormal development. The disorder can occur before or after birth. Most infants show symptoms of the disorder shortly after birth. Diagnosis is usually made before age 1. Signs may include delayed growth and development, spastic hemiplegia (slight or incomplete paralysis), hypotonia (low muscle tone), seizures (often infantile spasms), and macrocephaly (large head) or microcephaly (small head). Individuals with porencephaly may have poor or absent speech development, epilepsy, hydrocephalus, spastic contractures (shrinkage or shortening of a muscle), and mental retardation. Is there any treatment?

A more correct definition would be focal atrophy. In children, porencephaly is manifested by focal cavities with smooth walls and minimal surrounding glial relation following destruction of a portion of the germinal matrix before the 26th gestational week. According to some authors, this should be called agenetic porencephaly (which is frequently accompanied by anomalies of the overlying cortex) and distinguished from encephaloplastic porencephaly that develops later in the second trimester, and from encephalomalacia (see multicystic encephalomalacia encephalomalacia ), that results from late gestational, perinatal or postnatal injuries. The distinction between porencephaly and encephalomalacia is possible because the mature brain reacts differently from the immature brain: in immature brain there is almost no glial reaction and for this reason the destruction of brain results in a smooth, porencephalic cyst. In the mature brain the resulting cavity contains septations and the wall is composed primarily by reactive astrocytes.

The limited capacity for astrocytic reaction at this time of development means that necrotic tissue is largely resorbed (liquefaction necrosis). This is in contrast to damage later in development which is associated with a more profound astrocytic proliferation which results in a cavity containing numerous septations and significant surrounding gliosis. These porencephalic cysts are occasionally termed encephaloclastic. On imaging studies, porencephalic cysts appear as smooth walled cavities which contain fluid of CSF characteristics on all sequences or attenuation profiles ( Fig.1 ). The cavities have no internal structure and the surrounding brain is often of normal signal intensity and attenuation. It may be difficult to distinguish ex vacuo dilatation of the ventricles from porencephaly. These cysts frequently communicate with the ventricular system.

Cephalic is a term that means " head " or "head end of the body." Congenital means the disorder is present at, and usually before, birth Cephalic disorders are not necessarily caused by a single factor, but may be influenced by hereditary or genetic conditions, nutritional deficiencies, or by environmental exposures during pregnancy , such as medication taken by the mother, maternal infection, or exposure to radiation (such disorders are more common in areas of the former Soviet Union affected by nuclear waste disposal problems, such as the area around the Mayak plant in Chelyabinsk Russia .) Some cephalic disorders occur when the cranial sutures (the fibrous joints that connect the bones of the skull ) join prematurely.
