Ultrasound-guided hydrostatic enema for meconium obstruction in extremely low birth weight infants: a preliminary report

Abstract

Meconium obstruction (MO) in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants is a challenging disease to treat. We performed ultrasound-guided hydrostatic enema on six ELBW infants diagnosed with MO. We consider this procedure to be safe and effective, and recommend it as a treatment for MO in ELBW infants.
