title: Milk induced enterocolitis in monozygotic twin neonates.
abstract: Reports of milk protein induced enterocolitis are increasing, but few describe the condition in twins. Twin Japanese girls developed bloody diarrhea on day 4 and were transferred to the NICU in our hospital. Surgical disorder and infection were initially suspected, but the correct diagnosis was reached after 12 days of hospitalization.
