In children, this definition also includes the failure of the intestine to support growth and development. The cause of IF most frequently involves loss of intestine length, so‐called short gut, but may also result from neurological or enterocyte dysfunction that prevents normal peristalsis or absorption.en-USPublisher PolicyIntestinal failureIntestine transplantationModel for End‐Stage Liver DiseaseMultivisceral transplantParenteral nutritionPN‐associated liver diseaseArticle
