Abstract
- Fetal intracranial hemorrhage is quite rare. It refers to the bleeding that occurs antenatally from a blood vessel into ventricles, subdural space, or parenchyme of the brain. Factors that may place the fetus at risk for intracranial hemorrhage include maternal drug exposure history, various maternal and fetal conditions. The majority of reported antenatally detected cases of intracranial hemorrhage have occurred during the third trimester. Residual changes may include development of a porencephalic cyst or ventricular enlargement. Intracranial hemorrhage has a broad spectrum of manifestations with diverse prognosis. We report a case of fetal intracranial hemorrhage that was diagnosed antenatally in the third trimester with a brief review of literatures.
