Disseminated intravascular coagulation in association with congenital neuroblastoma

Disseminated intravascular coagulation in association with congenital neuroblastoma.

A 3-month-old infant with neuroblastoma complicated by progressive depletion of coagulation factors and a microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia is described. Specific anti-tumour therapy corrected the haemorrhagic defect on 2 occasions, but did not affect tumour bulk significantly, although a fall in urinary vanillyl-mandelic acid was seen. The rarity of this association and the possible underlyi...

Primary Intrarenal Neuroblastoma with Hypertension and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

The primary intrarenal neuroblastoma (IRNB) is a rare condition. Intrarenal neuroblastoma typically results from direct renal invasion from an adrenal neuroblastoma, but true intrarenal neuroblastoma originates either sequestered adrenal rests during the fetal life or intrarenal sympathetic ganglia. Clinical, radiological, and pathological correlation is very essential for diagnosis and appropr...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation with intracranial haematoma in neonatal congenital syphilis.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) although a well known complication in neonatal sepsis is extremely rare in congenital syphilis and there are scanty reports of this entity in the literature. Intracranial bleeding following DIC in neonatal congenital syphilis is even rarer, and has been reported only once earlier. We are reporting the second case of neonatal DIC with intracranial hae...
