Germinal matrix-intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is the most common variety of neonatal intracranial hemorrhage and is characteristics of the premature infant. The importance of the lesion relates not only to its high incidence but to their attendant complications (IC: hydrocephalus). Brain sonography is the procedure of choice in diagnosis of germinal matrix- intraventricular hemorrhage and h...

Intraventricular hemorrhage is associated with poor functional outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to investigate the association between intraventricular hemorrhage and early hematoma expansion in patients with ICH. Patients with ICH who underwent a baseline CT scan within six hours after onset of symptoms were included. The follow-up CT scan was performed within...

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) may occur as an isolated event from primary ventricular bleeding or as a complication of brain hemorrhage from another etiology. It is associated with high mortality and morbidity. The underlying risk factors include hypertension and aneurysms, among others. However, not all the exact etiologies are known. In this study, a case of a 24-year-old man who suffered...

Moyamoya disease usually manifests as ischemic events in childhood, and as more severe hemorrhagic events, including intraventricular hemorrhage, in adults. Recently, the indication for neuroendoscopic surgery has been extended to cast-formation intraventricular hematomas. However, detailed information about the use of neuroendoscopic surgery for the treatment of intraventricular hemorrhage ass...

In patients with high-grade atherosclerotic stenosis or occlusion of the extracranial cerebral arteries, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) may occur, potentially due to rupture of fragile dilated pial collateral vessels. This association has been well described in Moyamoya disease. There are only few cases in the literature that reported SAH due to bilateral carotid artery stenosis but intraventric...

background interventricular hemorrhage (ivh) and broncho pulmonary dysplasia(bpd) commonly occur in premature infants and they associate with platelet dysfunction. the aim of this study was to investigate the association of mpv and occurrence of ivh and bpd. materials and methods in this cross sectional study, 3 groups including ivh, bpd and control were compared. all participants were preterm ...

Objective: Preterm infants are prone to intraventricular hemorrhage. They may suffer from significant morbidity and mortality particularly in those with high-grade hemorrhage. Our objective was to determine the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants transported to a tertiary center compared with those delivered at the level III facility. Methods: We evaluated all prematur...
