Intraventricular haemorrhages (IVH) are the most commonly occurring intracranial haemorrhages in neonates, especially in preterm infants. The origin of IVHs is located in the germinal matrix. The cause of an IVH is a combination of intravascular, vascular and extravascular factors. The diagnosis is made by ultrasound. Knowledge on the causes of antenatal haemorrhages lags far behind knowledge on the causes of postnatal haemorrhages. In cases of haemodynamic changes in utero, ultrasound could be useful to examine the foetal brain. The presence of an intracranial haemorrhage in utero greatly influences the prognosis of the infant.
