Abstract

Onasemnogene abeparvovec treats spinal muscular atrophy by delivering a functional SMN1 gene. Necrotizing enterocolitis typically occurs in preterm infants. We report 2 term infants diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy who presented with necrotizing enterocolitis after onasemnogene abeparvovec infusion. We discuss potential etiologies and propose monitoring for necrotizing enterocolitis after onasemnogene abeparvovec therapy.
