摘要
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 medical and surgical management.
