ABSTRACT

Periventricular leukomalacia, a condition characterized by hypoxic-ischemic infarction of deep cerebral white matter, can now be recognized by cranial sonography. The case presented here demonstrates the association of periventricular leukomalacia present at birth with intrauterine paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
