pubmed:abstractText |
We observed two clusters of spontaneous pneumoperitoneums in extremely low birth weight infants during the use of a protocol for early dexamethasone prophylaxis (EDP) for bronchopulmonary dysplasia from 1996 to 1997. During surgery, focal small bowel perforation (FSBP) was found in eight of nine cases. A retrospective study was designed to identify risk factors for FSBP in these extremely low birth weight infants.
