From: Cortical ischaemic patterns in term partial-prolonged hypoxic-ischaemic injury—the inter-arterial watershed demonstrated through atrophy, ulegyria and signal change on delayed MRI scans in children with cerebral palsy

a, b Isolated peri-Sylvian watershed involvement in a 12-year-old girl. Sequential T2-weighted MRI slices in the sagittal plane demonstrate atrophy of the cortex and subcortical signal abnormality with white matter volume loss, at the most superior portion of the Sylvian fissure (black arrows), which represents an ‘end-zone’ of all three major cerebral arteries and represents the most commonly involved portion of the watershed zone in patients sustaining partial-prolonged HII at term gestation
