Immune-mediated thrombocytopenia in neonates is caused by the transplacental passage of maternally derived antiplatelet antibodies. The 2 most common causes include neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia, which leads to significant thrombocytopenia and risk of intracranial hemorrhage, and autoimmune thrombocytopenia, which is generally less severe. No specific guidelines for prenatal management exist for either disease; however, intravenous immune globulin treatments and systemic steroids for women with at-risk pregnancies can be useful in both diseases. In this review, we discuss the current literature and management strategies for both pregnant women and newborns with immune-mediated thrombocytopenia.
