Notes:
Abstract Mucormycosis of the neonatal gut is a rare disease, and most cases have been fatal. Three such cases were seen in quick succession; their detailed clinical and pathological findings are discussed. Experience in managing the first two fatal cases was successfully utilized in the management of the third baby, with gratifying results. A high index of suspicion and characteristic distinguishing features from necrotizing enterocolitis can facilitate an early diagnosis followed by specific therapy.
