Early reconstructive rescue surgery for acquired short bowel syndrome (clinical report)

Short bowel syndrome is a severe, rare malabsorption disorder, often resulting from extensive surgical resections of the small intestine. This condition is often accompanied by pronounced violations of the nutritional status and fluid and electrolyte balance, which are poorly amenable to drug correction. In this article, we describe three clinical cases of patients suffering from this pathology where it was possible to achieve pronounced clinical improvement through reconstructive surgery.
