Oliguria in the incubating neonate. Emergency aortography and urography in neonates using mobile X-ray equipment.
Neonates in incubators underwent umbilical aortography, excretory urography and suprapubic cysto-urethrography using a mobile X-ray machine in the Premature Baby Unit to define the cause of their oliguria. The techniques were easy to perform without endangering the infants by moving them. The radiological findings in the four neonates investigated contributed significantly to the management of their illnesses.
