Use of Omegaven for patients with parenteral nutrition associated liver disease.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Disease Progression as Measured by Serum Levels of Hepatic Enzymes
To evaluate whether established parenteral nutrition associated liver disease (PNALD) can be reversed or its progression halted by using a parenteral fat emulsion prepared from fish oil (omega-3 fatty acid emulsion, Omegaven®) as measured by normalization or decrease of serum levels of hepatic enzymes.
