Hi Dr Kokil
Thank you for your answer. these results are for a 2year old boy. could this have happened in the womb? he didnt need oxygen during birth. Also, what does the peritrigonal zone control. could this cause development delay ?
Hi!
The results basically mean that there are old changes from poor oxygen supply in an area of the brain called peritrigonal zone—which is a triangular area posterior and superior to the trigones of the lateral ventricles. These changes are mainly seen in diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Though they are of no immediate threat, all these causes, and the presence of ischemic changes can be a risk factor for future stroke. Hence, prevention methods should include a healthy lifestyle, and a combination of diet, exercise, and medicines.
Regarding the sinuses you have chronic sinusitis affecting mainly the maxillary sinuses behind your cheek bones. Please consult your doctors regarding this. Take care!
