Core Tip

Core tip: Neonatal gastric perforation (NGP) is an extremely rare condition and very few cases have been reported to date. We determined the etiology and prognostic factors for NGP in nine cases who were treated at a single center. Early detection and prompt surgical intervention are essential to improve the outcomes of NGP.
