RESUMEN
Intraventricular hemorrhage is common in premature infants, and post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus may follow. Rarely, intraventricular hemorrhage can occur in utero and may lead to congenital hydrocephalus. In most cases no underlying disease is identified. The fetus may be compromised by intrauterine hypoxia leading to hemorrhage. Fetal hydrocephalus can be identified by ultrasonography, but the hemorrhagic lesion can be identified with high sensitivity by magnetic resonance imaging. There are neurologic deficit in neonate with fetal hydrocephalus. Early surgical treatment is recommended for neurodevelopmental outcome. We experienced a case of congenital hydrocephalus associated with fetal intraventricular hemorrhage in our hospital. We report the case with a brief review of the literature.
