“…In this context, although the pregnant women with ITP were reported to be more resistant to bleeding disorders than the non-pregnant women owing to the increased levels of coagulant factors during pregnancy such as factor VIII, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor, the critical planet count threshold was set to 20 to 30 × 10 9 /L. [ 1 ] Especially the platelet levels < 20 × 10 9 /L were demonstrated to be a high-risk factor for the development of severe neonatal thrombocytopenia, [ 18 , 20 ] which may also result in intracerebral hemorrhage, ostium secundum atrial septal defect, and hypospadias. [ 21 , 22 ] When the platelet counts are below this level, the corticosteroid administration at the least dose possible or IVIG injection is advised to be prescribed as a front-line treatment, and during the delivery, a platelet transfusion can also be required depending on the mother platelet counts.…”
