Case Report: Transitioning to a Mixed-Oil Intravenous Lipid Emulsion in an Adult Patient Receiving Home Parenteral Nutrition.

A potential risk of long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) is intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). One recommendation for mitigating risk is limiting the fat dose to reduce the harmful effects of the ω-6 fatty acids, which are the main ingredient in traditional fats. SMOFlipid (SMOF) (Kabi-Fresenius, Bad Homburg, Germany) is a combination of soybean oil, medium-chain triglycerides, olive oil, and fish oil emulsion. This fat source may alleviate the risk of IFALD and improve liver function tests. A patient with a long history of PN reliance and IFALD is presented in this case report. After 4 months on SMOF, total and direct bilirubin levels improved.
