O. Sibony et al., IN-UTERO FETAL CEREBRAL INTRAPARENCHYMAL HEMORRHAGE ASSOCIATED WITH AN ABNORMAL CEREBRAL DOPPLER, Fetal diagnosis and therapy, 8(2), 1993, pp. 126-128
Cerebral hemorrhages are the most serious complication in preterm and
hypotrophic neonates. The mechanisms underlying the formation of these
hemorrhages are unclear. In utero Doppler cerebral velocimetry is not
yet used as a parameter to predict this complication. Our case allowe
d us to analyze the evolution of cerebral Doppler abnormalities with t
he appearance of an intracerebral hemorrhage. The modifications in the
Doppler cerebral velocimetry could not be predicted. Therefore it is
necessary to determine other parameters which show the evolution of th
e intracerebral vasomotricity.
