Abstract: Abstract Introduction Surgical intervention in necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is correct when there is intestinal gangrene. This is evident when gangrene produces perforation and pneumoperitoneum, with this being the only universally accepted radiological indication for the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-065934
Abstract: Introduction Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) remains a major contributor to preterm mortality and morbidity. Prolonged duration of antibiotic therapy after delivery is associated with later NEC development but recent evidence suggests that absence of antibiotic treatment… read more here.

DOI: 10.1308/rcsann.2020.0075
Abstract: Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is a rare cause of the acute abdomen in adults and carries one of the highest mortality rates in gastroenterology. However, its rarity confines research to small case reports. Both its pathogenesis… read more here.
