Diagnosis and Staging of Necrotizing Enterocolitis: Current Controversies and a Phenotype-Based Framework

2026-04-03

Abstract excerpt

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains one of the most devastating gastrointestinal emergencies in neonates and also presents major diagnostic challenges. Despite extensive research, NEC still lacks a practical definition and relies on a set of nonspecific clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings rather than a single pathognomonic presentation or test. The modified Bell staging system remains the most wide...
