Visceral Hemorrhage in Newborn
This can be caused by trauma during birth, such as if the infant gets stuck and needs to be extracted with forceps. If you look at the liver (lowermost organ), you can see the necrotic tissue on the right-hand side. You can also see necrosis within the kidney cross-section, spreading from the renal pelvis.
