title: [Total colectomy in necrotizing enterocolitis].
abstract: Total colectomy in the neonatal period, after a necrotizing enterocolitis is not infrequent and implies a series of complex attitudes towards a good adaptation of the remaining small bowel. We present 9 cases of total colectomy in children with necrotizing enterocolitis of 11 cases surgically treated out of 57 cases. We describe the different types of surgical procedures used as well as the evolution of each patient.
