This study describes neonatal mortality and morbidity as well as the neuropsychological outcome of extremely-low-birth-weight infants (less than 1000 grams) born between 1/1/1982 and 12/31/1992. The number of preterm infants admitted to the neonatal unit has increased over the last ten years. If neonatal mortality remains high, the prognosis of these immature children is favourable and depends on close collaboration between obstetricians and neonatologists and on the quality of perinatal care.
