    Neonatal nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis, a rare condition causing heart valve vegetations and embolism, was confirmed post-mortem in an infant. Early diagnosis via echocardiography may benefit high-risk newborns.

    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal pathology
    • Cardiovascular research
    • Pediatric critical care

    Background:

    • Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) is uncommon in neonates.
    • Diagnosis in newborns is challenging, often occurring post-mortem.
    • Associated conditions include hyaline membrane disease and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).

    Observation:

    • A case study of a neonate with NBTE is presented.
    • The infant experienced hyaline membrane disease and DIC.
    • Autopsy revealed degenerative verrucal endocarditis on tricuspid and aortic valves, with pulmonary and renal embolism.

    Findings:

    • Heart valve vegetations in neonates are rare at necropsy.
    • NBTE is difficult to diagnose antemortem in newborns.

  • The case highlights the association of NBTE with severe neonatal conditions.

    • Implications:

    • Further prospective studies are warranted.
    • Echocardiographic screening may be beneficial for high-risk neonates.
    • Improved diagnostic strategies for neonatal NBTE are needed.
