title: [Diagnostic and therapeutic problems in a newborn with aortic coarctation, adrenal and intracranial hemorrhages and renal failure].
abstract: We report on a 3-day-old newborn with critical coarctation of the aorta, coexisting adrenal and intracranial hemorrhages and acute renal failure requiring dialysis. Severe hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, mounting anemia and thrombocytopenia, clotting disturbances suggesting DIC, pneumonia, hypertension, increasing circulatory failure and repeated intracranial hemorrhage were observed and were the reason for postponing heart surgery. The child was operated on during the third week of hospitalisation on an emergency basis. The cardiac surgery procedure was performed successfully.
