Abstract
The fate of neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis is variable, with colonic strictures being one rare
phenomenon after the insult. We describe here two infants with colonic strictures, which developed
secondary to neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis. Infants recovered or in the process of recovery after it
should be investigated for possibility of development of colonic strictures.
