Short Bowel Syndrome: Practical Approach to Management is the first
reference exclusively about the issues experienced by patients with
a short bowel. It covers all aspects of normal and abnormal
physiology, the presenting features, and outcomes, including
metabolic problems, gallstones, and renal stones. It discusses both
medical and surgical treatments, including intestinal
transplantation. The use of growth factors, which is likely in the
future to become increasingly important in promoting intestinal
structural adaptation, is extensively discussed. Special emphasis
is given to the psychosocial aspects of the quality of life of
patients, including support groups. Emphasis is also given to the
importance of an experienced multidisciplinary team in caring for
these patients. This book is particularly timely given the recent
advances in the management of Short Bowel Syndrome, including the
availability of pharmacologic agents to enhance intestinal
absorption, refinements in parenteral nutrition, and surgical
procedures designed to eliminate the need for parenteral nutrition
support. The goal of this international, interdisciplinary book is
to bring the subject of Short Bowel Syndrome to a wide audience. A
wide range of specialists have contributed to this book to provide
various viewpoints on the state-of-the-art care of those with this
condition.
