“…Eventually few patients with IF will require intestinal transplantation (ITx), offering a chance to survive when life‐threatening complications prevent safe continuation of PN. Traditionally, ITx has been mostly performed because of end‐stage IFALD, loss of vascular access sites, and recurrent sepsis or dehydration episodes . With decreasing incidence of progressive IFALD, long‐term maintenance of vascular access is indeed becoming the major challenge in long‐term IF care .…”

“…Three of the chil- dren died as a result of the procedure and two other are awaiting a second transplant, now multivisceral due to the irreversible liver damage. Although the current literature records that the survival of intestine transplants in children is 50 to 70%, 16,17 our study shows that the Brazilian experience is different. We found that rehabilitation of the small intestine is possible, even in the case of small remaining segments, such as minimal extensions of 10 to 15 cm.…”

“…La NPD es una técnica segura que, en muchos casos, facilita la adaptación intestinal y la autonomía digestiva (19), pero existen una serie de factores de riesgo que pueden contribuir a su fracaso y a la necesidad de valoración como posibles candidatos a trasplante (Tabla II). La remisión adecuada y precoz a Unidades de Rehabilitación Intestinal y Trasplante puede mejorar el pronóstico y la evolución (20) (Tabla III).…”
