Cerebral computed tomography in newborn children with large retinal hemorrhages.

Cerebral computed tomography was performed in 10 neonates with large retinal hemorrhages compared with a control group of 10 full-term neonates without such hemorrhage. No signs of intra-cranial hemorrhage were found. The cerebral ventricles were poorly visualized in both groups. Periventricular low attenuation areas was a frequent finding in both groups.
