Book Synopsis Recent Advances in Our Understanding of NEC Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment by : Minesh Khashu
Book excerpt: Necrotizing enterocolitis is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in newborns, especially those born preterm. The pathogenesis of NEC has intrigued the neonatal medical and surgical community for over 60 years. Significant strides have been made in recent years in our understanding of why NEC occurs. Efforts continue to be made to improve our ability to prevent NEC or minimize its risk. Earlier recognition and diagnosis of NEC is being explored through various research studies as are optimal surgical strategies for managing NEC.
