Perioperative Total Parenteral Nutrition in Malnourished, Gastrointestinal Cancer Patients: A Randomized, Clinical Trial

Abstract

This study shows that 10 days of preoperative TPN that is continued postoperatively is able to reduce the complication rate by approximately one third and to prevent mortality in severely malnourished patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
