title: Enteric fistula formation secondary to necrotizing enterocolitis.
abstract: We report two cases of enterocolonic fistula formation following necrotizing enterocolitis, and a review of the six previously published cases. Ischemic mechanism is the most likely cause. The fistulas were diagnosed by upper gastrointestinal series and contrast enema.
