Chronic intestinal pseudo obstruction(CIPO) is a serious motility disorder with life-threatening condition, and it is often related with bacterial overgrowth. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) results in restoration of the normal intestinal microbial community structure. The investigators planned to observe the efficacy of FMT in the treatment of a series CIPO patients. Patients received FMT on 6 consecutive days through nasojejunal tubes and followed up for 8 weeks after treatment. Rate of clinical improvement and remission, feeding tolerance of enteral nutrition, CT score of intestinal obstruction, and gastrointestinal quality-of-life index(GIQLI) were evaluated.

| fecal microbiota transplantation | Procedure | Patients received frozen FMT on 6 consecutive days through nasojejunal tubes. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| the tolerance of enteral nutrition (EN) through nasojejunal tube | We defined feeding intolerance (FI) as inability to deliver the amount of nutrient as a proportion of 'energy requirements', with values of 80% chosen, or a certain amount (750ml) per 24h. | 8 weeks |
| the time oral intake started | The time when oral intake (both fluids and solid food) started was noted. | 8 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| symptomatic relief | The occurrence and severity of each of these symptoms: pain, nausea, vomiting and bloating (each scored as 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = medium, 3 = severe, or 4 = could not be worse) were recorded by nurses blinded to the intervention on a daily basis. | 8 weeks |
| scoring evaluation of abdominal CT |
