title: Cerebral hemorrhage in alloimmune thrombocytopenia.
abstract: Intracranial hemorrhages are rare in term infants. We describe such an infant born with multiple foci of intraparenchymal hemorrhage in various stages of maturation, caused by maternal platelet-specific anti-PlA1 antibodies that were delivered transplacentally to the developing fetus.
