Objective To evaluate population-based data on very preterm infants (3 days after disease onset (n=14). High lactate values immediately prior to surgery was predominantly seen in acute NEC-extensive disease and associated with high mortality. Other laboratory values could not discriminate between acute NEC and FIP. Timing of surgery for acute NEC and FIP overlapped. Radiological absence of portal venous gas was typical in FIP. Most infants (62.5%) underwent a stoma formation at initial surgery. The overall survival rate was 67% for NEC and 77% for FIP.Conclusion NEC cases have different presentation and prognosis depending on the extent of bowel affected. Revised classifications for intestinal injuries in preterm infants may improve prognostication and better guide therapy. |
