Initial brain ultrasound (Figure 1A) and echocardiography revealed no abnormalities. On day 8 of life, pulmonary hemorrhage occurred unexpectedly, and ultrasound examination revealed grade 2 IVH (Figure 1B and C) and relapse of the coagulopathy without signs of disseminated intravascular coagulation (Table 1). The coagulopathy did not relapse, and the absorption of hemorrhage and the formation of subependymal cysts were confirmed by brain ultrasound on day 34 (Figure 1D).
