Core Tip

Core Tip: Congenital short bowel syndrome (CSBS) is a rare disorder distinguished by the congenital shortage in the length of the small intestines, resulting in compromised intestinal functionality, frequently accompanied by congenital intestinal malrotation. Prompt identification and surgical management of CSBS are crucial in enhancing the overall prognosis of patients affected by this condition. What is new: This paper summarizes the experience of enteral and parenteral nutrition schemes for two cases of CSBS accompanied by intestinal malrotation to provide a reference for this condition.
