title: [Long-term outcome of short bowel syndrome].
abstract: Short bowel syndrome is a malabsorptive condition, and long-term survival depends upon the process of intestinal adaptation. During this process, patients with short bowel syndrome frequently encounter problems such as developmental disorders, deficiency of vitamins and trace elements, liver dysfunction, catheter sepsis, etc. The treatment of these complications and surgical management, including intestinal lengthening procedures and intestinal transplantation, are described.
