  • Title: Mild form of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis masked by anal fissures.
    Author: Bowen A.
    Journal: Radiology; 1980 Dec; 137(3):657-9. PubMed ID: 7444052.
    Abstract:
    In three infants with clinically mild necrotizing enterocolitis, heme-positive stools were initially attributed to anal fissures, delaying diagnosis and treatment of the enterocolitis for 4-10 days. Radiographically, pneumatosis intestinalis involved the entire colon and rectum. A causal relation may exist between necrotizing enterocolitis and anal fissure.
