Update on intestinal transplantation for the intensivist

In recipients of intestinal transplants, prompt identification of infections and complications such as rejection, posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder, and graft-versus-host disease is essential. Early recognition and intervention are critical to preserving graft function and improving overall survival. Effective management of these perioperative challenges requires a multidisciplinary team approach, with intensivists playing a central role in achieving optimal outcomes.
