Abstract
Neonatal arterial thromboses are rare and generally associated with an arterial umbilical catheter.There are cerebral or aortic thromboses, rarely distal thromboses. We report the case of a 7-day newborn admitted to pediatric emergencies for arterial thrombosis of the right lower limb complicating hypernatremic dehydration, treated with heparin with favorable evolution and total regression of the signs.
