CONCLUSIONS: The term "PVL" should be used appropriately as it reflects its pathomechanism. The phrase "white matter injury of prematurity" or "brain injury of prematurity" is more specific. Discrepancies in imaging and clinical presentation must be tread with caution and warrant further investigations to exclude other possibilities.
