Specific congenital abnormalities, particularly congenital heart disease, are known to increase the likelihood of developing NEC, and mostly these are indicative of some form of perinatal stress. Nevertheless, the most common comorbidity in NEC remains prematurity and its sequelae. Book Name: Necrotizing Enterocolitis |
