[Peri-intraventricular hemorrhage in pre-term newborns weighing less than 1,000 g., and its possible relationship with way of delivery]. / Hemorragia peri-intraventricular en neonatos de pretérmino con peso inferior a 1,000 g., y su posible relación con la vía de nacimiento.

The Cerebral ultrasonographic study of 20 preterm newborns under 1,000 g. is presented. Two groups were formed: 15 by vaginal via, and 5 by section. There was a higher frequency of cerebral hemorrhage among pre-term newborns by vaginal via than in products obtained through cesarean section. The causes for higher vulnerability to cerebral hemorrhage in the brain of the pre-term products, are mentioned. The changes in conduct for the birth of pre-term products should wait for more experience.
