Abstract
- Intestinal transplantation has become an accepted therapy for short bowel syndrome and other types of intestinal failure. In order to assess digestive capabilities and feeding practices in a group of 22 pediatric patients after intestinal transplantation, we assessed mucosal disaccharidase activities and assimilation of total dietary lipid and vitamin E. Twelve of the patients had undergone contemporaneous liver transplantation.
