    Pica, an eating disorder, can lead to necrotising enteritis and intestinal perforation. This study explores the link between pica and this severe gastrointestinal condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Pica is a disorder characterized by the persistent eating of non-nutritive, non-food substances.
    • Necrotising enteritis is a severe intestinal condition often associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

    Observation:

    • This report details two cases of intestinal perforation.
    • Both patients presented with necrotising enteritis.
    • Pica was a significant comorbidity in both cases.

    Findings:

    • The study investigates the aetiopathogenesis of pica.
    • It examines the specific role of pica in the development of necrotising enteritis.
    • A direct correlation between pica and the occurrence of necrotising enteritis leading to perforation is suggested.

    Implications:

    • Understanding the link between pica and necrotising enteritis is crucial for early diagnosis and intervention.
    • This research highlights the potential gastrointestinal complications associated with pica.
    • Further research into the mechanisms linking pica to intestinal damage is warranted.
