ABSTRACT
Extreme prematurity involves a series of complications that a multidisciplinary team should manage. Taking into account the risks related to premature newborns, such as maternal-fetal infections, intrauterine growth restriction, and certain comorbidities associated with young gestational age, our objective is to highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary team in approaching cases with an unfavorable prognosis. This is a case report of an extremely preterm newborn who came from a high-risk pregnancy and needed long-term hospitalization in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and mechanical ventilation.
