Abstract
This case report highlights the clinical course of a 33-week premature neonate (Twin 2) born to a non-consanguineous couple. The infant presented with various medical challenges, including supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and seizures. Despite intensive medical interventions, the SVT remained unresponsive to adenosine. This case emphasizes the need for a comprehensive diagnostic approach and the challenges faced in managing complex medical conditions in premature infants.
