Health Risks and Injuries Associated With NEC Birth Injuries
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating gastrointestinal disease that destroys a baby’s intestinal tissue, often within days. It occurs most frequently in premature infants fed cow’s milk–based formulas such as Similac® and Enfamil®. Below are some of the most common health outcomes associated with NEC.
Intestinal Damage
NEC can destroy parts of the intestines, requiring immediate medical intervention.
Bowel Resection
Due to NEC, surgeons may need to remove sections of the intestine.
Nutritional Struggles
Babies who lose intestinal tissue may need specialized feeding support.
Serious Infections
Damaged intestines can spread bacteria and cause life-threatening illness.
Developmental Delays
NEC survivors may face challenges with growth, language, or motor skills in early childhood.
Chronic Digestive Problems
Long-term bowel issues can follow babies into adolescence, including pain, poor absorption, and ongoing medical care.
If your child developed NEC after being fed a cow’s milk–based infant formula, contact us immediately. Your first consultation is always free.
