Inflammatory polyps after necrotizing enterocolitis.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal emergency in the neonatal period. NEC causes ulceration of the intestinal mucosa and may lead to perforation or a stricture. To the best of the authors' knowledge intestinal inflammatory polyps after NEC have not been described previously. The authors report on a 17-week-old boy with pseudopolyps at the site of a colonic stricture after NEC.
