Jaundice in low birthweight infants: pathobiology and outcome

J F Watchko, M J Maisels, J F Watchko, M J Maisels

Abstract

Jaundice in preterm, as well as full term, infants results from (a) an increased bilirubin load in the hepatocyte, (b) decreased hepatic uptake of bilirubin from the plasma, and/or (c) defective bilirubin conjugation. Hyperbilirubinaemia in preterm infants is more prevalent, more severe, and its course more protracted than in term neonates.
