This descriptive study includes 155 inborn patients and 25 referred patients from 2000 to 2017. The large number of subjects included, the extended follow-up and the clinical details from this center with a high level of expertise and experience in intestinal rehabilitation further our understanding of the natural history of one of the four major causes of pediatric short bowel syndrome(along with necrotizing enterocolitis, intestinal atresia and malrotation with volvulus).
