A case report on the long‐term use of teduglutide in a pediatric patient with short bowel syndrome
Abstract Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the leading cause of intestinal failure, frequently necessitating long‐term parenteral nutrition (PN). Teduglutide (TED), a glucagon‐like peptide‐2 analog, has demonstrated efficacy in reducing PN dependence in both adults and children. However, long‐term data in pediatric populations remain limited.
