Abstract Very preterm infants miss the peak in-utero supply of omega-3 docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and omega-6 arachidonic acid (AA), and are thought to receive low amounts after birth. In a randomized controlled trial of 1077 babies born <29 weeks’ gestation we assessed the DHA and AA concentrations in whole blood before and after (36 weeks’ post menstrual age, PMA) enteral emulsion intervention with 60 mg/kg/d of DHA compared with no DHA soy oil.

We describe two cases of agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC) with interhemispheric cyst (IHC). Case 1: a male infant was born at 36 weeks gestation with a history of second trimester fetal ultrasound (US) scan and MRI showing ACC with IHC. His head circumference at birth and 5 months was at 90th centile. He developed infantile spasm and electroencephalogram showed hypsarrhythmia at 5 months of age. Seizures were controlled. He is under evaluation for surgical treatment.
