NECROTIZING ENTEROCOLITIS OF INFANCY [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1971
Necrotizing enterocolitis of infancy is a fulminating disease, not entirely restricted to the neonatal period, but with a predilection for the premature infant.Our review of the world literature and our own experience with 20 proven cases indicate that the roentgenographic findings have generally permitted accurate diagnosis.

Molecular epidemiology of Clostridium neonatale and its relationship with the occurrence of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm neonates

New Microbes and New Infections, 2019
Clostridia—especially Clostridium butyricum—are among the taxa most frequently identified from stool samples of preterm neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Recently, Clostridium neonatale has also been detected from epidemic cases, but using a
