ERNICA is a European Reference Network (ERN) which addresses congenital malformations and diseases that appear early in life and require multidisciplinary care and long-term follow-up, and examines the transition to adulthood
ERNICA will focus initially on congenital gastro-intestinal (GI) diseases such as EA (Esophageal atresia), CDH (Congenital Diaphramatic Hernia), Hirschsprungs Disease and Small Bowel Syndrome. It aspires, at a later date, to tackle acquired diseases such as Achalasia (also relevant to EA patients).
