Potential usefulness of olive oil-based lipid emulsions in selected situations of home parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease
2004
Long-term (i.e. home) parenteral nutrition has been advocated to be responsible for several metabolic complications among which hepatic disorders have long been the most relevant in view of patients' prognosis. The increased knowledge of the pathophysiologic factors associated to parenteral nutrition-related liver disease as well as the regular improvement of the components and the techniques used for parenteral nutrition leaded progressively to a better prevention of these side effects. This case report focuses on the potential interest of olive oil-based lipid emulsions in home parenteral nutrition patients, in selected situations of home parenteral nutrition-associated metabolic liver disease.
