Abstract

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an acute inflammatory disease of the neonatal intestine that strikes in 1 of 1,000 live births. Its etiology is unknown.  This review describes in detail the new NECs especially those which affect preterm infants: contagion or lymphocytosis associated, transfusion associated and cow’s milk allergy associated. A wide repertory of images are presented, together with algorithms for differential diagnosis.
