Abstract
The appearance of a similar pattern of multifocal pulmonary consolidation in four neonates receiving undiluted medium-chain triglyceride oil suggested a cause-and-effect relationship. This was supported by the demonstration in rabbits that the transtracheal injection of MCTO caused severe pneumonia. It is suggested that MCTO be mixed with formula before it is given to neonates.Entities:
