Popis: Background and Objectives Pregnant women with Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) can deliver neonates with severe thrombocytopenia. Clear evidence declaring the pathophysiological cause of this neonatal thrombocytopenia is lacking, as antiplatelet antibodies are not always detectable in maternal serum. Severe neonatal thrombocytopenia below 50 × 109/l is reported in 8–13% of the neonates from mothers with ITP and intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) in 0–2·9%. Evidence about the optimal postnatal treatment is scarce. Our objective was to evaluate the outcome and management in neonates with passive ITP. Materials and Methods All neonates from mothers with ITP born between 1980 and 2011 were included. Platelet counts during the first 10 days, presence of ICH and postnatal treatment were recorded. Maternal characteristics were analysed as possible risk factors for severe neonatal thrombocytopenia. Results Sixty-seven neonates were included. Severe thrombocytopenia (
