[Fetal intraventricular hemorrhage caused by cerebral contusion, and with spontaneous remission. Contribution of MRI].

We report a case of fetal ventricular hemorrhage which occurred at 27.5 weeks gestation and caused by fetal brain contusion after a maternal traumatism. Ultrasound examination evidenced ventriculomegaly and an intraventricular clot which were confirmed by MRI. We discuss the interest of combining ultrasound and MRI of the fetal brain for the investigation and follow-up of fetal brain trauma. The patient gave birth to an eutrophic normal boy. The child is normal at 12 months follow-up.
