    Small and large bowel anatomy is associated with enteral autonomy in infants with short bowel syndrome: A retrospective cohort study
    (2024) SANDY, Natascha S.; ROBERTS, Amin J.; WALES, Paul W.; TOMA, Ricardo K.; BELZA, Christina; DOGRA, Harween; EVANS, Helen M.; GATTINI, Daniela; HIND, Jonathan; MERCER, David; POVONDRA, Jill M.; TURNER, Justine; YAP, Jason; WONG, Theodoric; AVITZUR, Yaron
    Background: Achievement of enteral autonomy (EA) is the ultimate treatment goal in pediatric intestinal failure (IF). We aimed to assess predictors of EA in pediatric short bowel syndrome (SBS) and explore the impact of residual small bowel (SB) and large bowel (LB) length on EA.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed on infants aged <12 months (n = 367, six centers) with SBS referred between 2010 and 2015. The cohort was stratified based on the achievement of EA. Statistical testing was completed using t-test, chi-square, Cox proportional hazards regression model, and Kaplan-Meier analysis.Results: EA was achieved in 229 patients. In the multivariable analysis, the percentage of residual LB (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.02; 95% CI = 1.01-1.02) and SB (HR = 1.01; 95% CI = 1.01-1.02) length, presence of the ileocecal valve (HR = 2.02; 95% CI=1.41-2.88), and not coming from a high-volume transplantation center (HR = 2.42; 95% CI = 1.68-3.49) were positively associated with EA, whereas a negative association was seen with the presence of stoma at the time when shortest remnant was documented (HR = 0.72; 95% CI = 0.52-1.00). EA achievement was significantly different between the anatomical subgroups (log-rank test P < 0.001) with an EA rate of 80.4% in infants with >= 50% SB and LB (median time 209 days); 62.5% with >= 50% SB and <50% LB (397 days); 58.3% with <50% SB and >= 50% LB (1192 days), and 25.9% with <50% SB and LB. Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) was not associated with a better achievement of EA (NEC vs other etiologies: log-rank test P = 0.33).Conclusions: Overall, 62% of infants with IF secondary to SBS achieved EA over a mean time of follow-up of 2.3 years. A colon length of >50% can compensate for the loss of small bowel (<50%) and account for similar EA rates as those in children with residual SB > 50%.
