Abstract
This is the largest observational multicenter study describing the use of HPN in patients with post-BS complications. Severe hypoalbuminemia is a major late complication. Rates of re-hospitalization and CVC infection were high. HPN may be a “bridge therapy” before surgical revision after BS. The high mortality rate reflects the complexity of these cases.
