Two cases of enteroumbilical fistula presenting in the neonatal period are reported. Both developed complications which required surgical intervention. A brief discussion on clinical features and management follows.
We present an unusual neonatal fungal infection, Hansenula anomala in a very low birthweight infant who underwent abdominal surgery for an omphalocele. Despite treatment with adequate doses of amphotericin B, the yeast continued to grow from the blood culture, and was only eradicated with the use of oral ketoconazole.
