One of our term newborn presented thrombocytopenia (with antibodies

maternal IgG) and neutropenia (with maternal HLA antibodies), hours after transfusion

of platelets and Ig Vena and Neupogen is better. Has anyone had any cases in which

thrombocytopenia is associated with neutropenia? parents are South Americans.

Thanks.

Dear Michelangelo,

Perhaps you have done both the work up for Neutrophil Antibody Screen and HLA (PRA) Antibody Screen.Though very rare but in congenital Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome it's possible to have associated neutropenia along with thrombocytopenia.You can check this repository:

How is the child anyway?

Hi,

I found another important link:

Have you got the genetic consultation already?

Will be glad to have the follow up of the disease course.

Love.
