Abstract
We created a novel, ambulatory TPN-SBS model using piglets, mimicking long-term TPN delivery in human SBS patients. Our model demonstrated TPN-related conjugated hyperbilirubinemia and compensatory gut hypertrophy, as noted in humans with SBS. This model holds great potential for future research.
