Short bowel syndrome historical perspective
Introduction
Overview
Overview
The first successful intestinal resection was performed in 1880. In 1935, Haymond following research on many patients with bowel resection, reported that 30 to 50% loss of bowel was well tolerated. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) was introduced during the 1960s, which lead to increased survival following bowel resection.
Historical Perspective
Historical Perspective
- In 1880, Koeberle performed the first successful intestinal resection.[1]
- In 1935, Haymond reported the association between the size of intestinal resection and survival of the patients. He concluded that patients who had less than 30% bowel loss would develop near normal intestinal function. The upper limit of safety was considered to be less than 50% bowel loss.[2][3]
- During the 1960s, Dudrick and Wilmore introduced total parenteral nutrition (TPN) which lead to increased survival following bowel resection.[4][5]
