An unusual late complication of necrotizing enterocolitis.
    Journal of pediatric surgery, 2001, Volume: 36, Issue:12

    Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) now is managed frequently successfully without surgical intervention. NEC may result in strictures, which present after the acute inflammatory process has resolved. Strictures usually present as obstruction in the first year or two of life. A case report is presented of an 11-year-old child who had symptoms from a previously undiagnosed NEC stricture as a result of pica when coins obstructed the stricture. As treatment of NEC continues to improve, more and later complications of this disease can be expected. J Pediatr Surg 36:1853-1854.
