A Novel Organoid-Based Strategy Using Hybrid Colon Interposition for Short Bowel Syndrome: A Mini Review of In Vivo Models and Possible Human Candidates.

This comprehensive review focuses on advances in surgical techniques and in vivo animal models for treating short bowel syndrome (SBS) with intestinal organoids. Notably, this review discusses a novel method involving the replacement of the epithelium of large intestinal tissue with small intestinal organoids, which improves function and prognosis when grafted back into the small intestine. This study not only underscores the importance of integrating organoid technology and surgical techniques to improve the outcomes of patients with SBS but also acknowledges the challenges that lie ahead, including achieving functional organoids with peristaltic movement and vascularization.
