They had a history of severe hyperbilirubinemia after birth as a result of Rh iso immunization. The history and clinical picture suggested the diagnosis of kernicterus. The magnetic resonance imaging examination showed a bilateral signal intensity increase in the globus pallidus on T2-weighted images. Additionally, our patients showed symmetric bilateral hyperintensity and volume loss in the hippocampus, which is known to be another characteristic area of bilirubin deposition in kernicterus.en10.1097/00004728-200403000-00018info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessmesial temporal sclerosiskernicterusmagnetic resonanceBilateral mesial temporal sclerosis and kernicterusArticle28226927215091133Q3WOS:000220268800018Q3
