Researchers develop a better solution to treat short bowel syndrome Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) is a medical disorder caused by a lack of a fully functional small intestine. Whether caused as a birth defect or because part of the small intestine was removed during surgery, SBS is a rare disorder, affecting approximately 13 000 people in the European Union. If left untreated, the condition can prevent the gut from performing its nutritional function. Unfortunately, there is no cure for SBS, and current treatment options have low survival rates and can cause serious side-effects – especially for children. That is why researchers with the EU-funded INTENS project are committed to developing a better solution.
