An 8-year-old girl with chronic idiopathic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIIP), who is the first case of CIIP in Japan, has been receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) for more than 6 years. During this time, she experienced deficiencies of copper, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin B12, folic acid, and biotin, and an excess of vitamin A; she exhibited a series of signs and symptoms due to these deficiencies and vitamin A overdosage. Nevertheless, careful monitoring of serum levels of trace elements and vitamins and appropriate therapy have almost solved these problems. She has achieved normal physical and mental development and goes to school, while receiving home parenteral nutrition with an ambulatory infusion system.
