Abstract

Short bowel syndrome is a congenital or acquired reduction after surgical resection in the length of the small intestine, causing malabsorption. The most common causes are intestinal atresia, Hirschsprung’s disease, gastroschisis, necrotizing enterocolitis, volvulus, vascular thrombosis, tumor, trauma and inflammatory bowel syndrome. Its pathophysiology, clinical presentation, management and prognosis are influenced by specific determinants. It requires an intestinal adaptation process to regain functionality. It presents multiple complications and the management is based on intestinal rehabilitation programs, parenteral and enteral nutrition, nutritional deficiency supplementation, pharmacological therapy and surgical procedures, with whom its prognosis and prevalence has risen in the last decades, but still persists with a high morbimortality.
