The formation of one or more intestinal strictures is a known complication of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Multiple prior investigations have found that the occurrence of colonic strictures is higher than small intestinal strictures, at an approximate ratio of 2-3:1. We hypothesized that small intestinal strictures may be more prevalent than colonic strictures at our urban, academic, tertiary care children’s hospital. Our first aim was to determine the incidence of small intestinal and colonic strictures in patients with prior medically treated NEC who had not undergone previous surgical intervention. Second, we attempted to evaluate for differences in demographics and other clinical variables between the group of patients with small intestinal strictures versus the group with colonic strictures.
