Short Bowel Syndrome

The American College of Gastroenterology wants to help patients understand that short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a treatable condition that can be managed effectively.


Short Bowel Syndrome: A Guide for Patients, was developed to offer information on SBS, its causes, treatment options, and working with your health care provider to reduce symptoms, as well as information on managing diet, finding help and support, and a list of resources for more information.
