Cases of progressive prenatal pleural effusions associated with NIHF have a high risk for fetal and neonatal death. We think that extreme prematurity increases postnatal mortality because it negatively affects the development of the lung and heart. A close obstetric follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach are required for the management to be selected.
