About

The present study aims to improve the information given to the parents during the screening of periventricular pseudocysts in the Pluridisciplinary Center of Prenatal Diagnosis, with retrospective cases screened during the last 5 years in university hospital of Bordeaux.

Full description

Antenatal ultrasound screening for periventricular pseudocysts is steadily increasing, enabled in part by technological advances in ultrasound equipment.

Most of studies dealing with periventricular pseudocysts and subsequent neurodevelopment are based on neonatal screening, mostly performed in neonatal units.

Current data in the literature on the postnatal outcome of children screened antenatally are scarce; there are only 5 cohort studies with small numbers on the subject.

The present study aims to improve the information given to the parents during the screening of periventricular pseudocysts in the Pluridisciplinary Center of Prenatal Diagnosis, with retrospective cases screened during the last 5 years in university hospital of Bordeaux.
