Abstract

Short bowel syndrome (SBS) that arises after extensive intestine resection is the main cause of intestinal failure development in children. SBS determines the wide pattern of problems on the post-operative treatment of such patients. Intensive care, which includes parenteral nutrition and medication, is the milestone of the post-operative management of children with SBS. SBS is the pathology that requires the multi-disciplinary management, but surgery promotes to achieve the intestinal autonomy.
