Abstract:
Hemoperitoneum in the newborn is an uncommon event, occurring most often in the setting of traumatic delivery. Hemoperitoneum resulting from antenatal hemorrhage into an abdominal mass is rare. We present a case of neonatal hemoperitoneum secondary to antenatal hemorrhage into a retroperitoneal lymphangioma. The differential diagnosis of neonatal hemoperitoneum is discussed.
