A-B, Prenatal magnetic resonance imaging of the fetus, T2-weighted TSE sequences 3 days before birth showing no asymmetry in the fetal brain. C-D, Head computed tomography at the age of 29 hours showing hypoattenuations in the arterial supply areas of the left middle cerebral artery and the posterior cerebral artery, characteristic of irreversible ischemic damage; TSE: turbo spin echo.

No lesions were detected in the fetal brain (Figure 1A, B). The scan revealed acute ischemic strokes in the areas supplied by the left middle cerebral artery and left posterior cerebral artery (Figure 1C, D).
At the age of 3 days: A-B, T2-weighted axial TSE sequence image of the brain showing hyperintensity in the cortical areas supplied by the left middle cerebral artery and the posterior cerebral artery, indicating edema; C-F, TOF angiography revealing no stenosis or thrombi; D-E, DWI and ADC map, respectively, showing diffusion restriction. At the age of 5 months: G-H, T2-weighted axial scan; I, FLAIR scan demonstrating chronic lesions from the left middle cerebral artery and posterior cerebral artery ischemic infarctions; ADC: apparent diffusion coefficient; DWI: diffusion weighted imaging; FLAIR: fluid attenuation inversion recovery; TOF: time of flight; TSE: turbo spin echo.
