In a study of 31 pediatric patients with short bowel syndrome who were treated with teduglutide, four cases of toxicities were reported. The patients experienced symptoms such as hyporexia, vomiting, increased episodes of intestinal pseudo-occlusion, and biliary lithiasis. One patient developed acute cholecystitis as a result of teduglutide therapy. The study did not provide information on the ages or sexes of the patients, the duration of treatment, or the outcomes of the toxicities. [Extracted from the article]

In a retrospective study, three patients aged 5-13 years developed Lactobacillus bacteraemia while receiving probiotic therapy with Lactobacillus-rhamnosus. The patients had various medical histories, including head trauma, short bowel syndrome, and acute myeloid leukemia. They presented with symptoms such as fever or neutropenia, and blood cultures confirmed Lactobacillus bacteraemia attributed to Lactobacillus-rhamnosus. All patients were treated with antibiotics, and the bacteraemia resolved. [Extracted from the article]

A 68-year-old man experienced lack of efficacy and acute gastric mucosal necrosis while being treated with teduglutide for short bowel syndrome (SBS) and renal dysfunction. Despite treatment, his nutritional status, oral intake, and stoma discharge did not improve. He also developed visceral dysfunction and his general condition deteriorated.

A 1-day old boy developed necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) while being treated with ampicillin, gentamicin, meropenem, and vancomycin as empiric antibiotic therapy. The boy showed symptoms such as a bloated abdomen, absent bowel sounds, and elevated inflammatory markers. After a series of medical interventions, including surgery to remove necrotic tissue, the boy was diagnosed with NEC and transferred to another department for further treatment of short bowel syndrome. It was concluded that the NEC was a result of the antibiotics administered. [Extracted from the article]
