Cervical spinal cord hemorrhage secondary to neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia.

Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia with intracranial hemorrhage is a reported phenomenon. While most of the hemorrhages are noted to be either intraventricular or intraparenchymal, the authors describe the case of a fourth-ventricle hemorrhage with extension into the spinal column down the cervical spinal cord secondary to maternal anti-human platelet antigen (HPA-1a) antibody.
