Abstract
This perspective reviews the definition and current understanding of necrotizing enterocolitis and evaluates a future prevention approach to this multifactorial disease. An overview of the prevention approach in general is presented, where key aspects and emerging criticisms are identified. In addition, key elements of early diagnosis and treatment are presented, together with some of their challenges and ambiguities. Moreover, it concludes with emerging questions from the global community to reach a consensus on the definition, diagnosis, and management of necrotizing enterocolitis disease.
