Question

An infant has a superficial regional density increase in the bilateral frontal-parietal cortex. What could be the cause?

Answer

In this situation, it is difficult to determine whether it is due to bleeding, vascular malformation, or normal brain tissue. It is unclear if the patient was born with hypoxia, and many infants may exhibit unconscious movements. It is recommended to closely monitor the condition and avoid further CT scans, as well as the arbitrary use of medications or treatment methods. If treatment is necessary, it should ideally begin around one year of age.
