-Investigations carried out in the mid 1970's by Tafari et al. described the isolation of ''Ureaplasma urealyticum'' from the lungs of stillborn infants with pneumonitis, and it is one of the earliest investigations that suggested the possible pathogenic role of ''U. urealyticum'' in neonatal disease.<ref name="pmid8399903">{{cite journal| author=Waites KB, Crouse DT, Cassell GH| title=Systemic neonatal infection due to ''Ureaplasma urealyticum''. | journal=Clin Infect Dis | year= 1993 | volume= 17 Suppl 1 | issue=  | pages= S131-5 | pmid=8399903 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=8399903  }} </ref> Waites et al. reported the first case of suspected neonatal ureaplasmal pneumonia with sepsis and persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn in the 1980's.<ref name="pmid2909979">{{cite journal| author=Waites KB, Crouse DT, Philips JB, Canupp KC, Cassell GH| title=Ureaplasmal pneumonia and sepsis associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. | journal=Pediatrics | year= 1989 | volume= 83 | issue= 1 | pages= 79-85 | pmid=2909979 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=2909979  }} </ref> Several case reports are now available in the literature documenting the isolation of ''Ureaplasma urealyticum'' and ''Ureaplasma parvum'' in fetal lung tissue, cord blood, pulmonary secretions, pleural fluid, lung tissue, and blood stream of neonates with pneumonia.<ref name="pmid8399903">{{cite journal| author=Waites KB, Crouse DT, Cassell GH| title=Systemic neonatal infection due to ''Ureaplasma urealyticum''. | journal=Clin Infect Dis | year= 1993 | volume= 17 Suppl 1 | issue=  | pages= S131-5 | pmid=8399903 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=8399903  }} </ref>
