Both total parenteral and enteral nutrition provide important supportive therapy for IBD patients, but in adults these are not useful for primary therapy. Dietary intervention with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in fish oil may be useful for the care of IBD patients, and recent studies have slyessed the role of PPAR on NFKB activity on the potential beneficial effect of dietary lipids on intestinal function.展开更多

His postoperative course was complicated by the development of Candida albicans esophagitis necessitating antifungal therapy, and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) for 15 d. Seven weeks after cholecystectomy, he presented with cholangitis. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) demonstrated extrahepatic filling defects. Despite endoscopic extraction of a biliary cast, cholestasis remained unchanged. Oral administration of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), 750 mg/d, resulted in normalization of liver function tests. We, therefore, propose for the f irst time, combined endoscopic plus UDCA treatment for the management of biliary cast syndrome.展开更多
