Abstract

Intracranial hemorrhage is a known complication in preterm neonates. We present an unusual etiology of subgaleal bleeding in a preterm extremely low birth weight neonate secondary to factor 7 deficiency. The neonate had unexplained subgaleal bleeding at the time of birth and developed a life-threatening pulmonary bleed subsequently and expired before the administration of definitive therapy.
