초록

Recently, the survival of the high-risk population of preterm infants has steadily improved, and the severity of prematurity is a growing threat of gestational-age-related fatal conditions. Posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) is the most common but serious neurological complication in premature infants, which can have life-threatening consequences during the acute phase in the neonatal period and life-long psychomotor and cognitive sequelae in their later life. Although neonatologists, pediatric neurologists, and pediatric neurosurgeons have investigated a diversified strategy for several decades, a consensus on the best management of PHH in premature infants still must be reached. Several approaches have tried to reduce the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and mitigate the effect of IVH-related hydrocephalus. This paper reviews and discusses the clinical feature of PHH in premature infants, general/nonsurgical management of prematurity for IVH prevention, and posthemorrhagic management, and how and when to intervene.
