title: Genitourinary malformation with calcified intraluminal meconium and pulmonary hypoplasia.
abstract: Calcified intraluminal meconium is a rare finding in newborn infants that is often associated with communication between the urinary and gastrointestinal tracts. Frequently such infants die because of respiratory problems. An illustrative case is presented, and pulmonary hypoplasia is suggested as an etiology of the respiratory difficulties observed.
