Extractions: Short-bowel syndrome is defined as a malabsorption state caused by intestinal resection. The symptomatology of patients with short-bowel syndrome covers a spectrum from chronic watery diarrhea to severe panmalabsorption, depending upon length and site of remaining intestine. The majority of patients can be managed on oral intake with supplements ]. A subset of patients, usually with jejunostomies and a short jejunal remnant (less than 200 cm) have high stomal outputs and require parenteral fluid and electrolyte supplements ]. Another subset with even shorter jejunal remnants develop severe nutrient malabsorption and need long-term parenteral alimentation. Surgical interventions such as intestinal transplantation for severe short-bowel syndrome should be reserved for the rare patient who has failed conservative treatment

R Roberts, IS Sketris, I Abraham, ML Givner, and AS MacDonald We present the cases of two patients with short-bowel syndrome who failed to achieve therapeutic cyclosporine serum concentrations on oral drug but were successful on intravenous administration. One patient received cyclosporine after renal transplantation for renal failure secondary to enteric oxalosis; the second received cyclosporine for active Crohn's disease. The rapid bowel transit time was the critical factor in limiting cyclosporine absorption in both cases. In studying oral and intravenous pharmacokinetic profiles, we support a zero-order kinetic model for oral cyclosporine absorption.

I rritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a benign, chronic symptom complex of altered bowel habits and abdominal pain. It is considered a functional type of bowel disorder. That is, no organic or structural cause can be detected (using currently available diagnostic modalities) to explain its symptoms. It is the most common functional disorder of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Other disorders in this group include functional dyspepsia, functional anorectal pain, and noncardiac chest pain. The many forms and presentations of IBS can make the diagnosis challenging, and its functional nature can make a satisfactory treatment regimen difficult.
