RESUMO
Facing with an increasing demand for transition to adult care management, our home parenteral nutrition (HPN) team designed an adolescent therapeutic educational program (ATEP) specifically intended for adolescents on long-term HPN. The aim of this study was to report on the first sessions of this program. Methods: The ATEP is designed in three sessions of five consecutive days, during school holidays over the year. It includes group sessions on catheter handling, disconnecting and connecting the PN and catheter dressing, dealing with unforeseen events (e.g., fever or catheter injury), but also sessions with psychologist, social worker, sports teacher, fashion specialist, meeting with adults who received HPN since childhood. Specific course for the accompanying parents were also provided. Six months after the last session, a 3-day trip to the attraction park "le Futuroscope," Poitiers, France, was organized without any parental presence. Results: After 3 ATEP courses, a total of 16 adolescents have been enrolled. They were aged between 13 and 17 years (median 14 IQR: 14-16.25). All were on long term HPN started during the neonatal period except for four who started PN at a median age of 10 years old (IQR: 1-10). At the time of the ATEP, their median PNDI was 105% (IQR: 95.5-120.8) while receiving a median of six infusions per week (IQR: 5-7). Thirteen received Taurolidine lock procedure. After the ATEP, 11 adolescents could be considered as fully autonomous, 4 as partially autonomous and one failed to gain any autonomy. Course evaluation by adolescents or parents was good to excellent. Conclusion: Through the holistic and multiprofessional approach of this training and the group cohesion, the adolescents were not only able to handle catheter care and PN connections but were able to understand and accept better their illness and project themselves into their own future.
RESUMO
Achieving feeding skills and food acceptance is a multi-layered process. In pediatric intestinal failure (PIF), oral feeding is important for feeding skills development, physiologic adaptation, quality of life and the prevention of eating disorders. In PIF, risk factors for feeding difficulties are common and early data suggests that feeding difficulties are prevalent. There is a unique paradigm for the feeding challenges in PIF. Conventional definitions of eating disorders have limited application in this context. A pediatric intestinal failure associated eating disorder (IFAED) definition that includes feeding/eating skills dysfunction, psychosocial dysfunction, and the influence on weaning nutrition support is proposed.

Intestinal failure (IF) is characterized by a critical reduction in functional gut mass below the minimum needed for optimal growth in children. It requires parenteral nutrition (PN) and home-PN (HPN), which is challenging in terms of meeting nutritional needs according to age, growth velocity, clinical situation, and rapid changes in fluid and electrolyte requirements. Due to these complex requirements, age-adapted multi-chamber bags (MCBs) are important additions to the nutrition armamentarium. The launch of composite fish oil (FO)-containing intravenous lipid emulsions (ILEs) heralded the development of MCBs containing these ILEs in combination with a crystalline amino acid solution adapted for pediatric use. The safety and efficacy of lipid and amino acid components in this context have been widely documented in numerous published studies. This narrative manuscript includes a review of the articles published in PudMed, Embase, and Google Scholar up to June 2023 for the age groups of term infants to children and adolescents. Preterm infants with their highly specific demands are not included. It aims to offer an overview of the clinical experience regarding the use of a composite FO-based ILE and a developed specific amino acid solution.

BACKGROUND: Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the main cause of intestinal failure in children. OBJECTIVES: This single-center study evaluated the safety and efficacy of teduglutide in pediatric patients with SBS-associated intestinal failure (SBS-IF). METHODS: Children with SBS followed at our center with ≥2 y on parenteral nutrition (PN) and with small bowel length <80 cm who had reached a plateau were consecutively included in the study. At baseline, participants underwent a clinical assessment including a 3-d stool balance analysis, which was repeated at the end of the study. Teduglutide was administered subcutaneously 0.05 mg/kg/d for 48 wk. PN dependence was expressed as the PN dependency index (PNDI), which is the ratio PN non-protein energy intake/REE. Safety endpoints included treatment-emergent adverse events and growth parameters. RESULTS: Median age at inclusion was 9.4 y (range: 5-16). The median residual SB length was 26 cm (IQR: 12-40). At baseline, the median PNDI was 94% (IQR: 74-119), (median PN intake: 38.9 calories/kg/d, IQR: 26.1-48.6). At week 24, 24 (96%) children experienced a reduction of >20% of PN requirements with a median PNDI = 50% (IQR: 38-81), (PN intake: 23.5 calories/kg/d IQR: 14.6-26.2), P < 0.01. At week 48, 8 children (32%) were weaned completely off PN. Plasma citrulline increased from 14 µmol/L (IQR: 8-21) at baseline to 29 µmol/L (IQR: 17-54) at week 48 (P < 0.001). Weight, height, and BMI z-scores remained stable. The median total energy absorption rate increased from 59% (IQR: 46-76) at baseline to 73% (IQR: 58-81) at week 48 (P = 0.0222). Fasting and postprandial endogenous GLP-2 concentrations increased at weeks 24 and 48 compared with baseline. Mild abdominal pain at the early phase of treatment, stoma changes, and redness at the injection site were commonly reported. CONCLUSIONS: Increased intestinal absorption and PN dependency reduction were observed with teduglutide treatment in children with SBS-IF.

Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the leading cause of intestinal failure (IF) in children. The preferred treatment for IF is parenteral nutrition which may be required until adulthood. The aim of this position paper is to review the available evidence on managing SBS and to provide practical guidance to clinicians dealing with this condition. All members of the Nutrition Committee of the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) contributed to this position paper. Some renowned experts in the field joined the team to guide with their expertise. A systematic literature search was performed from 2005 to May 2021 using PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. In the absence of evidence, recommendations reflect the expert opinion of the authors. Literature on SBS mainly consists of retrospective single-center experience, thus most of the current papers and recommendations are based on expert opinion. All recommendations were voted on by the expert panel and reached >90% agreement. This second part of the position paper is dedicated to the long-term management of children with SBS-IF. The paper mainly focuses on how to achieve intestinal rehabilitation, treatment of complications, and on possible surgical and medical management to increase intestinal absorption.

Faltering growth (FG) is a problem regularly seen by clinicians in infants and young children (<2 years of age). It can occur due to non-disease-related and disease-related causes and is associated with a wide range of adverse outcomes, including shorter-term effects such as impaired immune responses and increased length of hospital stay, and longer-term consequences, including an impact on schooling and cognitive achievements, short stature, and socioeconomic outcomes. It is essential to detect FG, address underlying causes and support catch-up growth where this is indicated. However, anecdotal reports suggest misplaced fear of promoting accelerated (too rapid) growth may deter some clinicians from adequately addressing FG. An invited international group of experts in pediatric nutrition and growth reviewed the available evidence and guidelines on FG resulting from disease-related and non-disease-related effects on nutritional status in healthy term and small for gestational age infants and children up to the age of 2 years in low-, middle-, and high-income countries. Using a modified Delphi process, we developed practical consensus recommendations to provide clarity and practical recommendations for general clinicians on how FG should be defined in different young child populations at risk, how FG should be assessed and managed, and the role of catch-up growth after a period of FG. We also suggested areas where further research is needed to answer remaining questions on this important issue.

OBJECTIVES: European Crohn's Colitis Organization (ECCO) and the European Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) guidelines recommend the early use of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) biologicals in pediatric Crohn disease (CD) patients with positive predictors for poor outcome. The objective of the present study was to compare early "Top-Down" use of adalimumab (ADA) immunomodulator/biologics-naive patients to conventional "Step-Up" management. METHODS: One hundred and twenty consecutive patients with a confirmed diagnosis of CD and treated with ADA between 2008 and 2019 were included and allocated to the ADA-Top Down (n = 59) or ADA-Step Up group (n = 61). The primary endpoint was prolonged steroid-/enteral nutrition-free clinical remission at 24 months, defined by a weighted Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (wPCDAI) < 12.5. Clinical and biological data were collected at 12 and 24 months. RESULTS: At start of ADA, disease activity was comparable between the ADA-Top Down group and the ADA-Step Up group (wPCDAI = 31 ± 16 vs 31.3 ± 15.2, respectively, P = 0.84). At 24 months, the remission rate was significantly higher in the ADA-Top Down group (73% vs 51%, P < 0.01). After propensity score, the Top-Down strategy is still more effective than the Step-Up strategy in maintaining remission at 24 months [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.36, 95% CI (0.15-0.87), P = 0.02]. Patients in the ADA-Top Down group were mainly on monotherapy compared to patients in the ADA-Step Up group (53/55 vs 28/55 respectively, P < 0.001). Serum levels of ADA were higher in the ADA-Top Down group than in the ADA-Step Up group (12.8 ± 4.3 vs 10.4 ± 3.9 µg/mL, respectively, P < 0.01). There were no serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS: Early use of ADA appears to be more effective in maintaining relapse-free remission at 2 years, while using it as monotherapy. These findings further favor the recommendation of early anti-TNF use in high-risk CD patients.

Although central venous catheter (CVC)-related thrombosis (CRT) is a severe complication of home parenteral nutrition (HPN), the amount and quality of data in the diagnosis and management of CRT remain low. We aimed to describe current practices regarding CVC management in French adult and pediatric HPN centers, with a focus on CVC obstruction and CRT. Current practices regarding CVC management in patients on HPN were collected by an online-based cross-sectional survey sent to expert physicians of French HPN centers. We compared these practices to published guidelines and searched for differences between pediatric and adult HPN centers' practices. Finally, we examined the heterogeneity of practices in both pediatric and adult HPN centers. The survey was completed by 34 centers, including 21 pediatric and 13 adult centers. We found a considerable heterogeneity, especially in the responses of pediatric centers. On some points, the centers' responses differed from the current guidelines. We also found significant differences between practices in adult and pediatric centers. We conclude that the management of CVC and CRT in patients on HPN is a serious and complex situation for which there is significant heterogeneity between HPN centers. These findings highlight the need for more well-designed clinical trials in this field.

BACKGROUND: The family environment influences food consumption and behaviours, which impact adolescent's eating habits, diet and health. Young individuals who frequently eat family meals are less likely to develop risk- and behaviour-related outcomes as obesity. AIM: To assess the relationship between the family meal environment and food and macronutrient consumption in European adolescents. METHODS: 1,703 adolescents aged 12.5-17.5 years (46.5% male) from the European HELENA cross-sectional study were selected. Sociodemographic variables and dietary intake using two non-consecutive self-reported 24-hour dietary recalls were collected from all the included participants. The relationship between family meals' environment and food and macronutrient consumption was analized using analysis of covariance. RESULTS: Adolescents who used to take their main meals with their family were associated with high consumption of healthy foods and beverages (i.e. vegetables, fruit, milk, water) and low consumption of energy dense food and beverages as chocolate, savoury snacks, sugar or juices compared with those who used to eat alone, with friends or other people (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The company/people with whom adolescents consume their meal have an important influence on the adolescent's consumption of different types of food (especially at lunch). Family's environment during meals has been associated with a high consumption of healthy foods.

Congenital enteropathies (CE) are a group of rare inherited diseases with a typical onset early in life. They involve defects in enterocyte structure or differentiation. They can cause a severe condition of intestinal failure (IF). The diagnostic approach is based first on clinical presentation (consanguinity, prenatal expression, polyhydramnios, early neonatal onset, aspect of stools, persistence at bowel rest, associated extra-digestive manifestations .) and histo-pathological analyses. These rare intestinal diseases cause protracted diarrhea that might resolve, for a few, with a dietetic approach. However, protracted or permanent IF may require long term parenteral nutrition and, in limited cases, intestinal transplantation. With the progresses in both clinical nutrition and genetics, many of these CE are nowadays associated with recognized gene mutations. It improved our knowledge and the understanding in the patho-physiology of these diseases, thus, leading potentially to therapeutic perspectives. These review cover most of the early onset CE and excludes the immune related diarrhea.

OBJECTIVES: Total colonic aganglionosis involving the small bowel is a rare form of Hirschsprung disease. We aim to analyse the long-term outcomes, digestive autonomy, and complications, to suggest recommendations for prevention and treatment. METHODS: All patients born between 2000 and 2015 followed in our centre were retrospectively included. We analysed the length of aganglionosis, surgical procedures, growth, duration of parenteral nutrition (PN), enterocolitis, liver disease, intestinal transplantation. RESULTS: Twenty-five patients were followed for a median of 10.9âyears. Fifteen patients had less than 80âcm of ganglionic small bowel (SB) with a median of 20âcm. Ten patients had more than 80âcm of ganglionic sB with a median of 115âcm. The median PN duration was significantly shorter for patients with more than 80âcm: 0.9 versus 7.5âyears in those with less than 80âcm (Pâ <â0.001). No patient with less than 80âcm was weaned off PN, except 1 who underwent intestinal transplantation. Ten patients with less than 80âcm develop enterocolitis on the excluded segment, leading to emergency entero-colectomy in 5. Liver disease was more frequent in patients with less than 80âcm (11 vs 0). Three patients required combined liver-intestine transplantation; 2 underwent an isolated intestinal transplantation. CONCLUSIONS: Digestive autonomy was possible in most patients with more than 80âcm of ganglionic SB. The more severe complication was enterocolitis. Liver disease compromised long-term survival without transplantation. Both complications should be prevented by early diversion and enterectomy of the whole aganglionic segment. Follow-up in or together with a multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation centre is suggested.

In our experience, the Santulli procedure (SP) can improve bowel recovery in congenital intestinal malformations, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), and bowel perforation. All cases managed at our institution using SP between 2012 and 2017 were included in this study. Forty-one patients underwent SP (median age: 39 (0-335) days, median weight: 2987 (1400-8100) g) for intestinal atresia (51%, two gastroschisis), NEC (29%), midgut volvulus (10%), Hirschsprung's disease (5%), or bowel perforation (5%), with at least one intestinal suture below the Santulli in 10% of cases. The SP was performed as a primary procedure (57%) or as a double-ileostomy reversal. Anal-stool passing occurred within a median of 9 (2-36) days for 95% of patients, regardless of the diversion level or the underlying disease. All three patients requiring repeated surgery for Santulli dysfunction had presented with stoma prolapse (p < 0.01). Stoma closure was performed after a median of 45 (14-270) days allowing efficient transit after a median of 2 (1-6) days. After a median follow-up of 2.9 (0.7-7.2) years, two patients died (cardiopathy and brain hemorrhage), full oral intake had been achieved in 90% of patients, and all survivors had normal bowel movement. Whether used as primary or secondary surgery, the SP allows rapid recovery of intestinal motility and function.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The first ECCO-ESPGHAN guidelines for the medical management of pediatric Crohn disease (CD) were published in 2014. Whether their implementation, and the consequent increased use of an upfront anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy, have changed the course of the disease has not been investigated yet. We aimed at comparing the evolution of pediatric CD patients diagnosed and treated before and after 2014. METHODS: Single-center retrospective study including all children diagnosed with CD from January 2010 to December 2018. Patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2014 (group 1) were compared to those diagnosed after 2014 (group 2). For each patient, at baseline and every 6-month, number of relapses, the occurrence of complication, therapy received and biological parameters were noted, as well as any endoscopic or radiologic evaluation. RESULTS: One hundred and fifty-four patients were included in the analysis, 78 (51%) diagnosed after 2014. The cumulative probability of a relapse-free and surgery-free course was significantly higher for patients treated according to the guidelines (log rank hazard ratio [HR] = 1,818, P = 0.003 and HR = 3,15, 95% confidence interval, P = 0.04, respectively). Mucosal healing rate was significantly higher among patients of group 2 at 1 and 2âyears (P = 0.04 and P = 0.05, respectively), while no significant difference was observed for transmural healing rates, as well as for the risk of complications. CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of the 2014 CD guidelines appears to have a significant impact on disease outcomes, with a significantly lower risk for relapse and surgery, while no effect could be observed on the risk of developing complications.

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is characterized by severe digestive +/- urinary dysmotility. If the conservative management fails, multivisceral transplantation (MVT) may be needed. However, urinary dysmotility remains after MVT and requires to continue urinary catheterizations and/or drainage. We report on a boy with severe CIPO complicated by (1) chronic intestinal obstruction requiring total parenteral nutrition, decompression gastrostomy, and ileostomy; (2) recurrent line infections; (3) hepatic fibrosis; and (4) distension of the bladder and upper urinary tract, and recurrent urinary infections, leading to non-continent cystostomy for urinary drainage. He underwent MVT at the age of 5 years. The transplant included the liver, stomach, duodenum and pancreas, small bowel, and right colon. The distal native sigmoid colon was preserved. Fifteen months later, he underwent a pull through of the transplanted right colon (Duhamel's procedure), together with a tube continent cystostomy (Monti's procedure) using the native sigmoid. Postoperative course was uneventful, and the remaining ileostomy was closed 3 months later. Five years post-transplant, he is alive and well. He is fed by mouth with complementary gastrostomy feeding at night. He has 3-6 stools per day, with occasional soiling. The cystostomy is used for intermittent urinary catheterization 4 times/day and continuous drainage at night. He is dry, with rare afebrile urinary infections, normal renal function, and un-dilated upper urinary tract. Conclusion: in severe CIPO with urinary involvement, preservation of the distal native sigmoid colon during MVT allows secondary creation of a continent tube cystostomy, which is useful to manage persistent urinary disease.

OBJECTIVE: To identify prenatal and neonatal predictors of short bowel syndrome-related intestinal failure (SBS-IF) in gastroschisis. STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective study included all patients with gastroschisis born between 2000 and 2017 who were enrolled in our home parenteral nutrition program, and all patients with gastroschisis born in our institution who survived 2 weeks, during the same time period. Prenatal ultrasound features, neonatal status, anatomic features, oral feeding, and parenteral nutrition dependency were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 180 patients, 35 required long-term parenteral nutrition (SBS-IF group) and 145 acquired full oral feeding within 6 months (oral feeding group). The mean follow-up was 7.9 years (IQR, 1.6-17.5 years) and 5.0 years (IQR, 0.1-18.2 years), respectively. Both bowel matting (OR, 14.23; 1.07-16.7; P = .039) and secondarily diagnosed atresia or stenosis (OR, 17.78; 3.13-100.98; P = .001) were independent postnatal predictors of SBS-IF. Eighteen children (51% of the SBS-IF group) were still dependent on artificial nutrition at the last follow-up. patients with SBS-IF who achieved full oral feeding had a median residual small-bowel length of 74 cm (IQR, 51-160 cm) vs 44 cm (IQR, 10-105 cm) for those still dependent on artificial nutrition (P = .02). An initial residual small bowel length of more than 50 cm was the best predictive cut-off for nutritional autonomy, with a sensitivity of 67% and a specificity of 100%. CONCLUSIONS: Bowel matting, complex gastroschisis, and secondary intestinal obstruction were associated with SBS-IF in gastroschisis. For patients with SBS-IF, a small bowel length of more than 50 cm was predictive of secondary nutritional autonomy.

The global adoption of predominantly plant-based, sustainable, healthy diets will help reduce the risk of obesity- and malnutrition-related noncommunicable diseases while protecting the future health of our planet. This review examines the benefits and limitations of different types of plant-based diets in terms of health and nutrition, affordability and accessibility, cultural (ethical and religious) acceptability, and the environment (i.e., the 4 pillars underlying sustainable healthy diets). Results suggest that, without professional supervision, traditional plant-based diets (vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian diets) can increase the risk of nutritional deficiencies among infants, children/adolescents, women, pregnant/lactating women, and the elderly. In contrast, flexitarian diets and territorial diversified diets (TDDs; e.g., Mediterranean and New Nordic diets) that include large quantities of plant-sourced foods, low amounts of red meat, and moderate amounts of poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy can meet the energy and nutrition needs of different populations without the need for dietary education or supplementation. Compared with vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian diets, more diverse flexitarian diets and TDDs are associated with reduced volumes of food waste and may be more acceptable and easier to maintain for people who previously followed Western diets. Although flexitarian diets and TDDs have a greater impact on the environment than vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian diets, the negative effects are considerably reduced compared with Western diets, especially if diets include locally sourced seasonal foods. Further studies are required to define more precisely optimal sustainable healthy diets for different populations and to ensure that diets are affordable and accessible to people in all countries.

BACKGROUND: Composite lipid emulsions containing soybean oil (30%), medium-chain triglycerides (30%), olive oil (25%), and fish oil (15%) (SMOF) are now widely used. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the tolerance, the efficiency, and the erythrocyte fatty acid (FA) profile for children on long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN) receiving a composite fish oil-based emulsion (FOLE). METHODS: At baseline, children (n = 46) with severe intestinal failure highly dependent on parenteral nutrition (PN) for ≥1 y were included in the study when they had received the composite FOLE for >6 mo. Out of this baseline group, only 25 children remained highly PN-dependent (SMOF1, n = 25) and could be assessed a second time, 2.4 y later (SMOF2, n = 25). An independent control group ("weaned off PN" group; n = 24) included children who had been weaned off PN for >2 y (median: 4 y). RBC-FA composition was established by GC-MS. Growth parameters, plasma citrulline, conjugated bilirubin, FA profiles, and the Holman ratio (20:3ω-9/20:4ω-6) were compared between groups. RESULTS: No difference for growth parameters, citrulline, and bilirubin was observed between the SMOF groups after 2.4 y (0.2 < P < 0.8). The weaned-off group did not differ from the SMOF groups for growth parameters (0.2 < P < 0.4) but citrulline was higher (P < 0.0001) and conjugated bilirubin lower (P < 0.01). The composite FOLE induced higher proportions of EPA (20:5n-3) (8.4% ± 2.9%) and DHA (22:6n-3) (11.7% ± 2.2%) than what was observed in weaned-off children (0.8% ± 0.4% and 6.6% ± 2.3%, respectively) but lower proportions of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6). However, the Holman ratio did not vary between groups (P = 0.9), whereas the PUFA concentrations varied widely. CONCLUSIONS: Long-term use of the composite FOLE was well tolerated in HPN-dependent children. The RBC-FA profile alterations were consistent with the ω-3 PUFA-enriched composition of this emulsion without evidence of essential FA deficiency.

Intestinal colonization of the neonate is highly dependent on the term of pregnancy, the mode of delivery, the type of feeding [breast feeding or formula feeding]. Postnatal immune maturation is dependent on the intestinal microbiome implementation and composition and type of feeding is a key issue in the human gut development, the diversity of microbiome, and the intestinal function. It is well established that exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months or more has several benefits with respect to formula feeding. The composition of the new generation of infant formulas aims in mimicking HM by reproducing its beneficial effects on intestinal microbiome and on the gut associated immune system (GAIS). Several approaches have been developed currently for designing new infant formulas by the addition of bioactive ingredients such as human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), probiotics, prebiotics [fructo-oligosaccharides (FOSs) and galacto-oligosaccharides (GOSs)], or by obtaining the so-called post-biotics also known as milk fermentation products.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Home Parenteral Nutrition (HPN) is the cornerstone management for children suffering from chronic intestinal failure (CIF). In France, HPN is organized from a network of 7 certified centers located in University Hospitals spread across the national territory. This study aims to review the data involving children on HPN over a 6-years period in France to outline the global and continuous improvement in care. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study included all children enrolled in any of the 7 French HPN certified centers from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2019. Data was recorded from annual databases provided by each center regarding: age at inclusion, indication and duration of HPN, type of intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE), outcome [PN weaning off, transfer to adult center, death, intestinal transplantation (ITx)], rate of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRSBIs) for 1000 days of HPN, Taurolidine lock procedure (TLP) use and prevalence of cholestasis defined as conjugated bilirubin ≥20 µmol/l. RESULTS: The number of patients increased by 43.6% from 268 in 2014 to 385 in 2019. According to the year of follow up, the indications for HPN were short bowel syndrome (SBS) (42.3-46.6%), congenital enteropathies (CE) (18.5-22.8%), chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction syndrome (CIPOS) (13.0-16.3%), long segment Hirschsprung's disease (LSHD) (9.7-13.3%), Crohn's disease (CD) (1.6-2.6%) and other non-primary digestive diseases (NPDD) such as immune deficiency, cancer or metabolic disease (4.0-9.2%). The median age at discharge on HPN decreased from 11.7 months in 2014 to 8.3 months in 2019 (p < .001). By December 31st, 2019, 44.8% of children had left the HPN program after a median duration ranging between 39.9 and 66.4 months. Among these patients, 192 (74.2%) were weaned off PN (94.7% SBS), 41 (15.8%) were transferred to adult centers for CIPOS (42%), SBS (31%) or CE (27%), 21 died (8.1%) - mostly in relation to cancer or immune deficiency - and 5 were transplanted (1.9%): 4 underwent combined liver-intestine transplantation for LSHD (n = 2), SBS, CE and one multivisceral Tx for CIPOS. The use of a composite fish-oil based ILE increased from 67.4% in 2014 to 88.3% in 2019 (p < 0.001). CRBSIs dropped from 1.04 CRSBIs per 1000 days HPN in 2014 to 0.61 in 2019 (p < 0.001) while meantime, the percentage of children receiving TLP increased from 29.4% to 63.0% (p < 0.001). The prevalence of cholestasis (conjugated bilirubin ≥ 20 µmol/l) was low and stable between 4.1 and 5.9% of children during the study period. CONCLUSION: In France, the number of children enrolled in a HPN program continuously increased over a 6 years period. SBS is the leading cause of CIF requiring HPN. The rate of CRBSIs dropped dramatically as the use of TLP increased. Mortality rate was low and mainly in relation to the underlying disease (cancer, immune deficiency). Cholestasis and intestinal Tx remained very rare.
