When did the intracranial hemorrhage and ventricular enlargement in the newborn occur?

Patient's question:

17-day-old infant with intracranial hemorrhage and ventricular enlargement, unsure when it occurred. Is it better to miss treatment? Symptoms are not very obvious, feeding well, normal temperature. Can it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Neonatal intracranial hemorrhage, also known as hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease or hemorrhagic stroke, is caused by the rupture of blood vessels leading to blood leakage into the cranial cavity. It is associated with factors such as birth trauma and hypoxia, with the highest incidence (40%-50%) observed in preterm infants at 34 weeks of gestation with a birth weight of 1500g. The prognosis needs to be determined based on the location and amount of bleeding. It is recommended to upload the examination results for analysis and judgment.
