What is Visuospatial and Visuomotor Deficits in Preterm Children: The Involvement of Cerebellar Dysfunctioning about?

This document discusses how preterm birth can negatively impact cerebellar development and function, which may contribute to visuospatial and visuomotor deficits often seen in preterm children. It reviews evidence that the cerebellum plays a role in these skills and that preterm children exhibit reduced cerebellar volume, especially in the lateral lobes. Two potential mechanisms are proposed - crossed trophic effects from cerebral injury impacting the cerebellum, and disrupted growth of the cerebellum
