The average adult's small
intestine is about 20 feet long. The small intestine of people with short bowel
syndrome is typically missing or removed in at least half of them. There are
numerous explanations as to why this might occur. Some infants are born with
gastrointestinal issues that cause some intestine damage. Others simply have
shorter bowels by birthright. Short bowel syndrome most frequently develops
following surgery to remove a sizable portion of the small intestine.
