Abstract

We present a child with intestinal failure who underwent intestinal transplantation, because he no longer tolerated parenteral nutrition. He experienced numerous typical complications, including repeated allograft rejection and several opportunistic viral infections. Intestinal transplantation is now available for the appropriate pediatric patient, but management remains an ongoing challenge.
