Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to characterize perinatal intracranial hemorrhage (pICH), focusing on differences between cases diagnosed before and after birth and analyzing their causes and clinical patterns.
- Conducted over a decade, the research included 110 pICH cases, revealing that intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) was most prevalent, particularly in prenatally diagnosed cases, while subpial hemorrhage was exclusively identified postnatally.
- The findings indicated that genetic disorders contributed to nearly a third of pICH cases, highlighting the necessity for next-generation sequencing to better understand genetic factors associated with prenatally diagnosed hemorrhages.
