Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a common complication associated with delivery in preterm neonates. Germinal matrix, subependymal layer of lateral ventricle is the most occurring site of intraventricular hemorrhage. IVH is imaged as a hyperechogenic area and ventriculomegaly on ultrasonography, but it is detected easily by fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The present case was referred to our clinic due to ventriculomegaly on ultrasonography. Germinal matrix was determined on the fetal cranium with ultrasonography and intrauterine MRI at 30th weeks of gestation. The pregnancy was terminated by cesarean section due to severe preclampsia. Fetal MRI should be performed to confirm the diagnosis on the cases with suspect ventriculomegaly.
