We report the case of a full term newborn with intraventricular hemorrhage and non-specific clinical findings. Cranial ultrasound scan, performed during the first days of life, allowed us to detect the hemorrhage and its evolution; a subsequent MRI allowed us to locate the site of the hematoma and to exclude the presence of deep venous thrombosis and parenchymal lesions. A review of the most frequent causes and sites of intraventricular hemorrhage in full term newborn infants is reported.

Abstract
We report the case of a full term newborn with intraventricular hemorrhage and non-specific clinical findings. Cranial ultrasound scan, performed during the first days of life, allowed us to detect the hemorrhage and its evolution; a subsequent MRI allowed us to locate the site of the hematoma and to exclude the presence of deep venous thrombosis and parenchymal lesions. A review of the most frequent causes and sites of intraventricular hemorrhage in full term newborn infants is reported.
