Enterocolitis necroticans or pigbel is a rare condition characteristically affecting chronically malnourished people who abruptly increase their intake of protein. The classic presentation of the disease as seen in the highlands of Papua New Guinea is that of a necrotising enterocolitis after the ritual ingestion of contaminated pork. In this context, the presentation of the same disease in a well nourished white vegetarian in Oxford was all the more intriguing.
坏死性小肠结肠炎或猪瘟是一种罕见病症，典型地影响那些突然增加蛋白质摄入量的长期营养不良者。在巴布亚新几内亚高地所见到的该疾病的经典表现是，在仪式性食用受污染猪肉后出现坏死性小肠结肠炎。在这种背景下，同一疾病在牛津一名营养良好的白人素食者身上的表现就更加耐人寻味了。
