RESUMEN
Prevent closure of an external intraventricular drainage with the use of heparin. A patient with intraventricular haemorrhage presented with repetitive closure of intraventricular drainage tube. A trial heparin infusion directly into the ventricle was attempted to prevent further closure of the catheter. The heparin used at a dose related of 340 units per 10 ml of intraventricular haematoma was effective in dissolving the clot and maintaining the external drainage patency. Thrombolytic therapy with intraventricular infusion of heparin may be life saving in intraventricular haemorrhage
