Abstract :	[en] Background: Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in very low birth weight (VLBW) preterms. Pathogenesis remains unclear. Recently, we observed a few NEC occurring within the 48 h following prophylactic administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIgG). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of IVIgG administration on the incidence of NEC in our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
