title: Bilateral central retinal vein occlusion with multiple intracerebral hemorrhage in a neonate.
abstract: Central retinal vein occlusion and intracerebral hemorrhage are rare diseases during infancy and are both related to venous thrombosis. We present the case of a full-term male hydrops infant without specific neurologic symptoms initially but later demonstrating bilateral central retinal vein occlusion and intracerebral hemorrhage. We conclude that routine funduscopic examination in high-risk newborns should be seriously considered.
