Abstract

In this study, the frequency of rotavirus infection and also the relation of rotavirus pathogens to necrotizing enterocolitis were investigated in newborns with diarrhea. We observed that rotavirus is a very important agent as a cause of nosocomial infection and also that it has a role in the development of NEC.
