title: Nonimmune hydrops and hydrocephalus secondary to fetal intracranial hemorrhage.
abstract: Our case demonstrates that nonimmune hydrops and hydrocephalus may be associated by the common pathway of intracranial hemorrhage and the development of anemia. The anemia apparently resulted in cardiomegaly with pericardial effusion and ascites as well as marked extramedullary hematopoiesis.
