Background.- Neonatal surgical mortality has decreased with the establishment of neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and mechanical ventilation (MV). The main indications for MV in the NICU patients are immaturity of lungs in preterm newborns and congenital or acquired lung infections. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), abdominal wall defects, esophageal atresia and congenital gastrointestinal anomalies are major surgical indications for MV in NICU patients. The aim of this study was to determine the results of MV treatment and discuss the role of pediatric surgical team in such cases.
