Abstract We report a case of a very low‐birth‐weight infant with a high‐output stoma following necrotizing enterocolitis. The patient exhibited villous atrophy and microbial dysbiosis. Supplementation with glutamine and partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG) was initiated, leading to reduced stoma output, improved feeding tolerance, and appropriate ...
