Abstract

A report of a 36 year old patient is given who was hospitalized because of an erythroblastosis. An indicated sectio caesarea resulted in an intraamnial application of lecithine for preventing a respiratory distress syndrome. It can be concluded by the measured lecithin-concentration that a high phospholipid-level in the amniotic fluid leads to an increased resorption by the fetus. Postpartal investigations showed a completely normal lung function in the newborne.
