Abstract

This article discusses the management of short bowel syndrome from the time of intestinal resection until the patient either recovers free of supplemental parenteral and enteral nutrition or progresses to the point of needing intestinal transplantation. The importance of aggressive use of enteral feedings is emphasized, especially in relation to the process of intestinal adaptation. An approach to the various complications of short bowel syndrome, especially small bowel bacterial overgrowth, is discussed. Surgical options short of transplantation also are described. Intestinal transplantation and its present and future roles in the management of patients with short bowel syndrome are discussed.
