Necrotizing enterocolitis is a relatively common disorder of unknown etiology that primarily affects premature newborns. The majority of babies with necrotizing enterocolitis respond to nonsurgical management, and, despite an increase in the number of premature infants, the surgical mortality rate has improved.

Necrotizing enterocolitis is the principal cause of surgical referral in preterm neonates and the most common gastrointestinal emergency among infants. Its pathophysiology is unclear and it carries high levels of mortality and morbidity. This article provides an overview of necrotizing enterocolitis including risk factors, preventative strategies and ...

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most serious and frequently acquired gastrointestinal disorder in neonates. The pathogenesis of NEC is unknown, but it may result from a disturbance of the delicate balance among gastrointestinal perfusion, enteric organisms, and enteral feeding.

AbstractNecrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an acute inflammatory disease of the intestine which primarily affects preterm infants and is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the neonatal intensive care unit. From a clinical standpoint, and during the early course of the disease, NEC can be difficult to distinguish from other diseases and ...

Recurrent necrotizing enterocolitis
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1993In the decade 1981 to 1991, 16 infants developed recurrent necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). They comprised 12 (6%) of 196 neonates referred for further management of NEC and four others referred with major congenital anomalies. Their median gestational age was 32 weeks (range, 27 to 40), median birth weight was 1,260 g (range, 790 to 3,230), and the ...

Clostridial necrotizing enterocolitis
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1985In a bacteriologic investigation of infants with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), 16 of 50 infants had clostridia in cultures of blood or of peritoneal fluid obtained by paracentesis. Twenty-eight of the 50 infants had enteric bacteria other than clostridia, and six infants had sterile cultures.

Neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1974Abstract As a result of an increasing awareness, the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis and survival of infants affected have increased. Chances of survival are decreased by intestinal perforation. Our review suggests that persistent or increasing abdominal distention and tenderness are premonitory signs of perforation.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. During the last few years, there was an increase in the incidence of this disease, associated with a better knowledge of NEC, and an increase in survival rate, associated with the development, even from a technological point of view, of neonatal intensive care ...
