- Abstract
- Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease that affects premature babies and contributes to their increased morbidity and mortality. The classic progressive stage with prominent fibroproliferation that first characterized BPD is generally less striking, and the disease is currently predominantly defined by a disruption of distal lung growth, thus it has been termed "new BPD." We present here in a case of 5-month-old girl dying from BPD and pulmonary hypertension. Autopsy findings of the lung showed fewer and larger alveoli with less fibrosis, which is consistent with those of "new BPD."
