Portal venous gas resulting from umbilical vein catheterization in a very‐low‐birth‐weight infant with no interruption in early feeding

Pediatric Investigation, 2021
Introduction Portal venous gas (PVG) is common in necrotizing enterocolitis and occasionally occurs in neonates after umbilical vein catheterization (UVC). Therefore, determining the cause of PVG requires further clinical evaluation in these cases.
