Antenatal intracranial hemorrhage is a rare cause of intrauterine fetal death, with an incidence of 4.6–5.1% in autopsy studies of stillborn fetuses. Warfarin‐associated fetal bleeding is also a rare problem, with an incidence of 4.3% in the literature. We present a case of warfarin‐induced subdural hematoma occurring in the second trimester. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2008.
