Real-time ultrasonography of arterial IVH in preterm infants.
The vascular origin of intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants is controversial and has been variously attributed to arteries, veins, arterioles, capillaries, or sinusoids that may be found in the vicinity of the ganglionic eminence. The clinical histories and serial ultrasound images are reported from 2 patients with intraventricular hemorrhage of arterial (high pressure) origin that were captured on real-time ultrasonography as they occurred.
