We read with interest the article by Dariel et al “European Pediatric Surgeon’ Association survey on the management of short-bowel syndrome” recently published in the journal.1 Based on our pediatric surgical experience previously in Manchester (UK)2 and ongoing in Florence (Italy)3 which has been double-checked by an external reviewer/author (A.L.), we would like to provide comments on the article (►Table 1). Regarding institutional practices, Manchester and Florence are high-volume centers with an Intestinal Rehabilitation Program but no transplant surgeon. As with most of the European centers, we use surgical strategies (>3 procedures/year in Manchester and 3 procedures/year in Florence) to facilitate enteral autonomy, promoting intestinal adaptation through an early stoma closure.

Abstract
We read with interest the article by Dariel et al “European Pediatric Surgeon’ Association survey on the management of short-bowel syndrome” recently published in the journal.1 Based on our pediatric surgical experience previously in Manchester (UK)2 and ongoing in Florence (Italy)3 which has been double-checked by an external reviewer/author (A.L.), we would like to provide comments on the article (►Table 1). Regarding institutional practices, Manchester and Florence are high-volume centers with an Intestinal Rehabilitation Program but no transplant surgeon. As with most of the European centers, we use surgical strategies (>3 procedures/year in Manchester and 3 procedures/year in Florence) to facilitate enteral autonomy, promoting intestinal adaptation through an early stoma closure.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
