Wilson—Mikity syndrome is a rare chronic neonatal interstitial lung disease
Abstract
The Wilson—Mikity syndrome is a neonatal interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology, which occurs between 1 and 2 months of age and which is characterized by late development of oxygen dependency. The paper gives information on the possible etiological factors, pathogenesis, pathomorphology, and clinical, X-ray, and CT patterns of this rare lung disease. Analysis of 61 cases described in the literature from 1960 to 2008 established the relationship of the manifestations of the syndrome to age and degree of prematurity, as well as disease outcomes. The authors give the results of their observations of 7 patients with Wilson—Mikity syndrome, including the pattern of high-resolution computed tomography.
