Postnatal cranial ultrasound images showing bilateral intraventricular hemorrhage with extensive hemorrhagic infarction of the left hemisphere and ventricular dilatation in coronal view (A) and parasagittal left plane view (B), blood clot in the 4th ventricle (C) and dilatation of the 4th ventricle (*) with dysplastic cerebellar hemispheres (D).

After stabilization, cranial ultrasound examination was performed within 3 h after birth (Figure 1).
Postmortem magnetic resonance imaging showing extensive ventricular dilatation and blood in the 4th ventricle in T2-weighted midsagittal plane (A), intraventricular blood in the right ventricle and ventricular dilatation of the left ventricle in T2-weighted axial plane (B), blood in the 4th ventricle with cerebellar dysplasia in T2-weighted axial plane (C) and susceptibility weighted image axial plane (D) of the posterior fossa.

MRI to look for possible other hemorrhages or other clues. MRI confirmed the ultrasound findings of hemorrhage originating from the germinal matrix of the ventricle and did not show any other sites of hemorrhage nor abnormalities otherwise (Figure 2).
