Neonatal aortic thrombosis, often linked to umbilical artery catheters, requires careful management. This study proposes an algorithm to guide treatment based on thrombosis severity and patient condition.

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal Medicine
  • Pediatric Cardiology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Aortic thrombosis in neonates is a serious complication, with incidence rising due to increased use of umbilical artery catheters in critically ill infants.
  • The natural history, classification, and optimal management of neonatal aortic thrombosis remain poorly defined, leading to therapeutic confusion.

Observation:

  • Neonatal aortic thrombosis presents a wide spectrum, from catheter-associated fibrin sheaths to complete aortic occlusion with branch vessel involvement.
  • Two cases are presented: one managed medically and another with surgical intervention, highlighting diverse clinical scenarios.

Findings:

  • Current treatment recommendations for neonatal aortic thrombosis vary widely, from conservative supportive care to aggressive surgical intervention.

  • A proposed management algorithm stratifies treatment based on the degree of aortic thrombosis, systemic manifestations, and overall patient condition.

    • Implications:

    • A standardized approach to neonatal aortic thrombosis management is crucial for improving outcomes in critically ill infants.
    • The proposed algorithm aims to provide a rational framework for clinicians facing this complex condition.
