| | Hemorrhages occur most often in premature infants, are often bilateral, and usually arise in the germinal matrix, which lies on the lateral wall of the lateral ventricles. | | | Associated traumatic injuries (eg, fractures of the clavicle or humerus or subluxations of the shoulder or cervical spine) may occur. | | | The prognosis for infants with subdural hemorrhage is guarded, but some infants do well. |

| | We conducted a retrospective study of 4,848 patients to evaluate the age-specific incidence of post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage that required surgical treatment. | | | Patients who had risk factors for hemorrhage (e.g., hypertension, hyperthyroidism, and anticoagulation therapy) were managed preoperatively; those who did not respond did not undergo surgery. | | | Among the outpatients, 23.8% had to be admitted as a result of postoperative complications; hemorrhages (most of them primary) had to be treated in 1%. |

| | Vitreous hemorrhage is a condition of intraocular (inside the eye) bleeding that usually presents with sudden vision loss, frequently with complaints of floaters or "spots" in the vision. | | | This is also quite common and is the reason that patients with retinal detachment often have symptoms of floaters, typically prior to the onset of peripheral or total vision loss. | | | Central or branch retinal vein occlusions may produce vitreous hemorrhage, and are most common in patients with high blood pressure or diabetes. |

If the CT and lumbar puncture are both nondiagnostic, and the headache is clinically suspicious for a bleed, then an invasive procedure called an arteriogram (cerebral angiogram) may be needed to make the diagnosis. |
