ABSTRACT

Intraventricular hemorrhage is the most common intracranial disease in the preterm newborn. Incidents have been reported from 30 to 50% according to different authors. There are multiple perinatal, prenatal and postnatal factors associated as a cause of germinal matrix hemorrhage within them prematurity, hypoxia, hypertension, hypercapnia, hypernatremia, hyaline membrane disease, seizures, pneumothorax, and others. The incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm infants under 34 weeks is 25 and up to 40% with 30% to 60% incidence in infants under 28 weeks. In recent years an increasing interest in this entity has increased because of its frequent occurrence especially in preterm with very low birthweight,its clinical frame can range from asymptomatic forms until catastrophic ones, hence the importance of ultrasound diagnosis, posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus and periventricular leukomalacia were the most frequently complications observed in this affection ,which can have serious long-term complications and even death. For all that, you need to pay attention to early diagnosis of intraventricular hemorrhage in order to reduce mortality and morbidity that accompanies it.
