Abstract: Objective We aimed to evaluate - the clinical characteristics,the diagnosis,and treatment of Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon(KMP)in newborns. Methods We retrospectively analyzed a case of new born with KMP in parapharyngeal space,along with a review of the related literature. Results In this case, oral administration of Prednisone and Propranolol was ineffective.As such,a combined solution of bleomycin and dexamethasone was injected into the tumor, and the treatment was completed in two stages, with an interval of one month.The tumor eventually resolved,and laboratory examinations were found to be normal. The patient was followed up for 2 years who showed good recovery without adverse reactions or sequelae. Conclusion KMP is a rare but greatharmful disease among in fants, especially rare in the parapharyngeal space. As there is no unified treatment at presen,there is a need for effective individualized management. This particular case shows that local injection of bleomycin and dexame thasone may be a safe and effective treatment in neonates with difficult surgical resection who are resistant to systemic medication.

Key words: Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon, Neonatal, Parapharyngeal space, Bleomycin, Dexamethasone
