Barium enema findings (segmental colitis) in four neonates with bloody diarrhea - possible cow's milk allergy

Four neonates with sudden onset of bloody diarrhea and barium enema findings suggestive of segmental colitis are reported. The infants were not very ill and in all four, the condition was self-limiting. An exact etiology for the condition was not determined but in all of the infants a possible association with cow's milk intolerance was suggested. (orig.)
