what is the prognosis for encephalomalacia?
often it is discovered among infants when they detect that the ventricles in the brain are swollen. Surgery is needed and drain the ventricles of the excess cerebrospinal fluid/blood. Most continue on to grow up and live a normal life.
no defined treatment to encephalomalacia
Encephalomalacia is the softening of brain tissue due to inflammation or hemorrhage. The symptoms of encephalomalacia is an anxious mood, pain, insomnia, fatigue, and depressed mood.
No. Encephalomalacia is not curable. It is a permanent cavity in the brain that results from trauma to brain tissue. The size of the cavity shrinks with time, but not completely. During shrinkage, one could have worsening of some neurological symptoms.
no
Yes it can.
spinal crush injury
Yes.
A craniotomy is a surgical procedure to access the brain, and it does not directly cause encephalomalacia. However, complications from the surgery, such as infection or bleeding, can lead to encephalomalacia if not properly managed. Careful post-operative monitoring and management are essential to prevent such complications.
Multicystic encephalomalacia can turn to cancer of the brain. It refers to deformities of cells, which causes brain damage. There are chances of the cells becoming cancerous.
The small aperture and focal length of a microscope objective allow for high resolution and magnification by increasing light-gathering ability and minimizing aberrations. A small aperture increases depth of field and improves contrast, while a short focal length reduces spherical aberration and increases optical performance.
The only treatment for cystic encephalomalacia is first finding out the underlying causes of the brain consistency and dealing with it. In severe cases, surgery may be needed to remove damaged brain substance.
