Of 40 survivors of necrotizing enterocolitis 19 were completely normal children at the time of follow-up, one to three years later. Among the other 21 children, only six had moderate to severe neurologic impairment, representing 15% of all survivors. Despite the fact that intestinal injury is the main feature of the neonatal disease, only four children were symptomatic from gastrointestinal sequelae, and none of these suffered failure to thrive. Thus, 81% (17) of the children with late morbidity had problems unrelated to the gastrointestinal tract. The nongastrointestinal morbidity was associated with prematurity and the degree of perinatal stress.
在40例坏死性小肠结肠炎幸存者中，一至三年后的随访时，19例是完全正常的儿童。在其他21例儿童中，只有6例有中度至重度神经功能损害，占所有幸存者的15%。尽管肠道损伤是这种新生儿疾病的主要特征，但只有4例儿童有胃肠道后遗症的症状，且这些儿童均未出现生长发育迟缓。因此，有晚期发病的儿童中81%（17例）有与胃肠道无关的问题。非胃肠道发病与早产和围产期应激程度有关。
