Pulmonary Hypoplasia Induced by Liquid Paraffin Injection into Fetal Thoracic Cavity with Special Reference to Renal Development in Rats

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The present study was designed to clarify lung-kidney interrelation in fetal rats. On fetal day 20, liquid paraffin (LP) was injected into fetal thoracic cavity to produce pulmonary hypoplasia. No significant difference in body and renal weights were noted between the LP injected and control fetuses.
