Management of non-traumatic intraventricular hemorrhage

Abstract: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is defined as the eruption of blood in the cerebral ventricular system and is mostly secondary to spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage and aneurysmal and arteriovenous malformation rupture. IVH is a proven risk factor of increased mortality and poor functional outcome. Its seriousness is correlated not only with the amount of blood but also with the involvement of the third and fourth ventricles. There are four mechanisms that explain the pathophysiology of this event: acute o… Show more

“…Spontaneous IVH usually results from extension of deep parenchymal, typically hypertensive, hemorrhage into the ventricular system, but sometimes may be seen as an isolated occurrence either without an identifiable cause (ie, idiopathic) or in the setting of an inherent or drug-induced coagulopathy. 26 As discussed earlier, when observed within the setting of a spontaneous ICH, the finding of an associated IVH substantially worsens the prognosis. [26][27][28] The volume of IVH has been independently correlated with clinical outcome after ICH.…”

“…In conclusion, in very rare cases, obstructive hydrocephalus due to IVH may be transient and does not need neurosurgical or invasive procedures for lowering elevated intracranial pressure, which otherwise still are the preferred options in the treatment of these patients 8 .…”

“…In cases of acute obstructive hydrocephalus following IVH, therapeutic options are external ventricular drainage, concomitant use of intraventricular fi brinolytics such as recombinant tissue plasminogen activator or urokinase, as well as endoscopic retrieval of intraventricular blood 8 . Osmotic agents such as mannitol can be eff ective in the short-term management of raised intracranial pressure 9 .…”
