title: [Effects of surfactant administration in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome. II. Radiographic changes].
abstract: The effect of treatment of severe respiratory distress syndrome with a natural porcine surfactant (Curosurf) on the radiographic appearances and degree of aeration is described. Separate assessment of each lung of 22 preterm babies was made before and after surfactant administration. The beneficial effect of Curosurf treatment on the aeration of the lungs was seen in 19 (86%) of the babies.
