Morphological alterations of exogenous surfactant inhibited by meconium can be prevented by dextran

BACKGROUND: Surfactant dysfunction due to inhibition is involved in the pathophysiology of meconium aspiration syndrome. Dextran addition has been shown to reverse exogenous surfactant inactivation by meconium, but the precise mechanisms and the morphological correlate of this effect are yet unknown...
