Case Discussion
Transient tachypnea of the newborn is classically associated with term babies born by cesarean section. However, it may occur following spontaneous vaginal delivery.
Imaging findings are those what would be associated with heart failure in other contexts. Interstitial fluid, airspace filling with fluid and pleural fluid.
