Retinal vein occlusion with cerebral infarction in a preterm neonate: a case report

Abstract Background Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a common disease that causes blindness in elderly patients, and cerebral infarction is also a severe disorder impairing the health of individuals. Both diseases are not common in neonates and are related to thrombosis. To date, only one case of sim...
