This study explores intestinal transplantation (ITx) as a viable treatment option for intestinal failure (IF). Historical development, donor and recipient considerations, surgical techniques, immunosuppression, and outcomes, are reviewed with particular emphasis to the value of living donor ITx. The review highlights the evolution of ITx and emphasizes the ongoing need for patient-specific selection processes. In the realm of pediatric ITx, the article underlines the significance of early intervention to mitigate IF-related liver disease. Overall, it provides a comprehensive overview of this life-saving procedure.
