Background/Purpose Severe gastrointestinal dysmotility (GID) impairs patients' quality of life and is almost uniformly fatal after complications of parenteral nutrition. Intestinal and multivisceral transplants have been used as alternative treatment of these disorders. We studied patients with GID treated with transplantation in our center, and reviewed their outcome to determine the therapeutic efficacy of multivisceral transplants. Methods The transplant database was searched for patients with GID from 1994 to 2001. We excluded patients with Hirschsprung disease, scleroderma, and diabetic enteropathy. We reviewed explanted organs, histochemistry, and immunohistochemistry and classified cases by etiology. Results We selected 12 children with GID from 124 patients transplanted. Nine presented before 1 year and 3 started with symptoms between 2 and 8 years. By combined clinical and histopathological features, 6 were classified as megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome, 4 as chronic idiopathic intestinal pseudoobstruction, and 2 as intestinal neuronal dysplasias. Six patients died during the follow-up from 21 to 546 days after transplant. The Kaplan-Meier actuarial survival rates were 66.7% at 1 year and 50% at 3 years. Conclusions Multivisceral transplantation is a valuable therapeutic alternative for children with severe GID who cannot be adequately managed with parenteral nutrition.
