Can celiac disease cause a sever short bowel syndrome?
10 مارس 2013

د. Judy Matta طب الأطفال
Short bowel syndrome occurs when a person is unable to absorb food nutrients properly that typically occurs in people who have had half or more of their small intestine removed. In newborns, short bowel syndrome may occur following surgery to treat conditions such as necrotizing enterocolitis (a condition that occurs in premature infants and leads to the death of bowel tissue) and congenital defects of the bowel, such as midgut volvulus. In children and adults, short bowel syndrome may occur following surgery to treat conditions such as Intussusception (a condition in which part of the intestine folds into another part of the intestine), Crohn's disease (an inflammatory bowel disease), bowel injury from loss of blood flow due to a blocked blood vessel, bowel injury from trauma and cancer and damage to the bowel caused by cancer treatment. Celiac disease is not a cause of short bowel syndrome but it is a cause for malabsorption.
