Answer: b. necrotozing enterocolitis.

Explanation:

Short gut disorder can happen as an inborn (exhibit during childbirth) condition. For instance, the small digestive system may be strangely short during childbirth, an area of the entrail may miss, or the inside does not frame totally before birth (intestinal atresia).

In different cases, patients create conditions in which an expansive area of the small digestive system must be evacuated by surgery. In babies, particularly untimely newborn children, necrotizing enterocolitis (the aggravation and loss of blood stream to the digestive system, prompting serious harm) is the most widely recognized reason for short entrail disorder.

Different causes include:

• Crohn's ailment (the digestive tract ends up plainly excited and scarred); in this condition SBS happens principally in patients who have experienced broad surgery to the little gut
• Intussusception (some portion of the digestive system is collapsed into another part and bargains the blood stream to the included segment of the digestive tract)
• Damage to the digestive system due to:
• Volvulus (winding of the digestive system)
• Injury (damage)
• Gastroschisis (when the digestive organs create outside the body before birth)
• Narrowing or impediment of the digestion tracts
• Tumors
• Blood clusters or unusual blood stream (ischemia) influencing the dissemination to the digestive system
