Serial transverse enteroplasty in adults with parenteral nutrition dependence: A case series
This represents one of the largest case series of serial transverse enteroplasty in adults. Small intestinal length nearly doubled, and PN dependence was reduced in most patients. Given the low morbidity and good quality of life observed in this series, this procedure should be more widely investigated for patients with chronic intestinal failure.
