Abstract
Three patients, 1-11 months of age, who underwent open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and profound hypothermia, developed necrotizing enterocolitis postoperatively leading to death. Pneumatosis intestinalis and portal vein gas were demonstrated radiographically. Necrotizing enterocolitis has not been previously reported as a complication of cardiopulmonary bypass and profound hypothermia.Entities:
