Abstract

A 1-day-old baby is born through emergent C-section at 36 weeks of gestational age due to sudden signs of fetal distress. At birth, he presented bleeding from the umbilical stump and epistaxis. Apgar score was 3/6, with the need for mechanical ventilation. There is familiar history of one brother deceased after birth due to prenatal brain bleeding of uncertain etiology and another healthy brother. Initial platelet count and coagulation screening tests were normal.
