RESUMO
We conducted a retrospective study of neonatal leukocytosis induced by prostaglandin E(1). Among 45 neonates with congenital heart disease, leukocyte counts increased during PGE(1) infusion. We conclude that PGE(1) infusion is a predictable cause of leukocytosis in newborns with congenital heart disease.

RESUMO
A 4-month-old girl who was examined because of splenomegaly had portal vein thrombosis, which apparently resulted from a combination of cytomegalovirus infection and deficiency of both protein S and protein C. The cytomegalovirus infection, by damaging endothelial cells, may have triggered a cascade of events that was ultimately expressed as portal vein thrombosis resulting from deficiency of proteins S and C.
