Some common immune-related neonatal disorders include:
- Neonatal Sepsis: A severe infection that spreads throughout the body, often caused by bacteria such as Group B Streptococcus or Escherichia coli. - Neonatal Hemochromatosis: A rare disorder characterized by excessive iron accumulation in the liver and other tissues, leading to liver failure. - Primary Immunodeficiencies: Genetic disorders that result in defects in various components of the immune system, making neonates more susceptible to infections.
