Some digestive disorders progress to a stage where the intestine cannot absorb nutrition adequately. Dr. Harshad Joshi in Mumbai offers counselling and assessment for intestinal transplantation in patients with severe irreversible intestinal failure. Conditions leading to this stage may include short bowel syndrome, complex Crohn's disease or repeated surgeries.
Such treatment is considered only after other medical and nutritional therapies are exhausted. Careful evaluation determines eligibility, discusses risks and benefits, and prepares patients and families for the journey ahead. Long term follow up plays a vital role in recovery and quality of life after transplantation.
Supportive care, infection control and nutritional rehabilitation form the pillars of post transplant management.
