title: [Neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (author's transl)].
abstract: Authors present analysis of 31 cases of necrotizing enterocolitis, which where treated medically as well surgically. Etiology is discussed and perinatal accidents are considered. An analysis of symptomatology and radiological study is made, both being deciding factors as to whether a surgical intervention is necessary. Medical treatment is commented as well as surgical and technical aspects. Mortality is sensibly diminished due to a better knowledge of the illness and to a closer cooperation between neonatologist and surgeon. It is important to point out sequelae which appeared in patients treated medically with intestinal stenosis localized in the colon.
