Abstract:
A patient with angiodysgenetic necrotizing encephalopathy or diffuse meningocerebral angiomatosis complicated by intraventricular hemorrhage, posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus, and signs of heart failure is reported. The hydrocephalus and cardiomegaly were diagnosed by fetal ultrasonography. Based on these pathologic findings, a vaginal delivery was induced at 36 weeks gestation. The patient was a female infant who died 24 hours after birth.
