ABCA3 deficiency is a rare cause of neonatal respiratory failure. Biallelic complete loss of function variants lead to neonatal demise without lung transplantation, but children with partial function variants have variable outcomes. The favorable clinical course of 3 such infants presenting with respiratory distress at birth is described.Entities:
