Zusammenfassung:To analyze the outcome of children with short bowel syndrome (SBS) who required long-term parenteral nutrition (PN). Retrospective analysis of children (n = 78) with SBS who required PN >3 months from 1975 to 2000. Statistics: univariate analysis, Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox proportional regression model were used. We identified 78 patients. Survival was better with small bowel length (SBL) >38 cm, intact ileocecal valve (ICV), intact colon, takedown surgery after ostomy (all P < .01), and primary anastomosis ( P < .001). PN-associated early persistent cholestatic jaundice ( P < .001) and SBL of
