Fifteen newborn infants developed roentgenographic evidence of rickets while on long-term intravenous hyperalimentation. In each instance, the initial diagnosis of rickets was suggested on the chest roentgenogram, where characteristic cupped and frayed upper humeral metaphyses were noted; subsequent knee and wrist roentgenograms substantiated these findings. Factors which may have predisposed to the development of rickets include inadequate doses of vitamin D, prematurity and a rapid change in body weight during hyperalimentation therapy.

An infant, with a normal chest film at birth, shortly thereafter developed hyperinflation of the apical-posterior segment of the left upper lobe due to stenosis of the aberrant bronchus supplying this segment.
The radiological findings associated with alloimmune thrombocytopenia have not been well described. We present two such cases diagnosed in utero by ultrasound and discuss the radiographic findings of intracranial hemorrhage and hydrocephalus secondary to alloimmune thrombocytopenia. An awareness of this entity and its early diagnosis and intervention may greatly reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with alloimmune thrombocytopenia.
