ABSTRACT

The spontaneous intestinal perforation is a rare affection in the neo-natal period. The evolution of a 28- week- old male newborn weighing 1000 g at birth with spontaneous intestinal perforation was described. The patient showed abdominal distension at 50 h of life and pneumoperitoneum was observed through radiography and peritoneal drainage was performed. A satisfactory evolution was observed in this patient. The conservative treatment was effective in this case.
