A rare cause of a rare entity – Milk curd syndrome: A case series and review of literature
Milk curd syndrome is an infrequent, iatrogenic cause of bowel obstruction in neonates and early infants, which arises mainly due to inspissation of formula feeds or dried cow's milk, but is very uncommon after feeding with unmodified animal milk, such as goat's milk. A systematic review aims to gain a deeper understanding of its demographics, causes, clinical profile, diagnosis, and management. If treated promptly, outcomes are favourable.
