Abstract

We describe a case of neonatal cerebral sinovenous thrombosis associated with the presence of anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL). We recommend that in all cases of neonatal thrombosis, the couple mother-infant should be extensively tested for the presence of both acquired (aPL) and congenital thrombophilia.
