FNAIT, tumors, TTTS.: Fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (fnait - i.e. Low platelets in fetal circulation), intracranial tumors/malformations, rare fetal infections, direct trauma, twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (ttts) and coagulation disorders of the fetus can all cause intracerebral hemorrhage in utero. The outcomes vary from practically normal to very poor. See http://women.Texaschildrens.Org/fetalcenter/.
