Surgical Management of Short Bowel Syndrome

Abstract: For patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS), surgery can play an important role in preventing, mitigating, and, in some cases, reversing intestinal failure (IF). During intestinal resection, bowel length should be conserved to the fullest extent possible to avoid dependence on parenteral nutrition (PN). Bowel salvage may be improved by initially preserving tissue of questionable viability and later reevaluating during “second‐look” procedures. Once the patient is stabilized, ostomy reversal and recruitment of… Show more

“…Tapering surgery of dilated SB in order to relieve the related functional problems has become increasingly popular during recent years especially in pediatric patients [14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. In serial transverse enteroplasty (STEP) and longitudinal intestinal lengthening and tapering (LILT), SB length is increased by narrowing the dilated intestine while preserving all absorptive mucosal surface [19,21].…”

“…Reversed segment lengths of 10-15 cm for adults and around 3 cm for children have been suggested to provide maximum benefits, but establishing the ideal length and location of the reversed bowel segment remains uncertain and produces variable results when clinically applied; e.g., this technique cannot be used when the remnant bowel is <25 cm [49]. For patients with rapid intestinal transit and who do not present bowel dilation, small bowel segmental reversal may cut PN requirements [49][50][51][52].…”
