Abstract
La enterocolitis necrotizante (ECN) es una urgencia gastrointestinal de causa multifactorial muy relacionada con el neonato pretérmino. Su elevada mortalidad radica en la falta de prevención por el médico a cualquier nivel de atención y a su diagnóstico tardío en los grupos de riesgo. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de los 63 pacientes fallecidos por ECN durante un período de 25 años en el Hospital Pediátrico Docente "Centro Habana", donde se encontró que 71,4 % de los afectados eran de la raza blanca y el 68,2 % del sexo masculino. La edad más frecuente se halló en los menores de 3 meses de edad (36,5 %) y el 46 % del total de la muestra estudiada tuvo un peso al nacer inferior a los 1 500 g. La prematuridad apareció asociada en el 55,5 % de los fallecidos y el 65 % tuvo lactancia mixta desde el momento de nacimiento.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a multifactorial caused gastrointestinal urgency closely related to the preterm newborn. Its high mortality has roots in the lack of prevention by the physician at any level of care, and due to a late diagnosis in risk groups. A retrospective study was carried out about 63 deceased patients as a result of NEC, along a 25 years period at the Centro Habana Teaching Pediatric Hospital, and it was found that 71,4 % of the affected infants were white, and that 68,2 % were masculin. The most frequent age was found in infants less than 3 months old (36,5 %), and 46 % of the total sample investigated had a birth weight lower than 1 500 g. Prematurity appeared associated in 55,5 % of the deceased, and 65 % had mixed lactation from the birth on.
