Core Tip	Distal intestinal obstruction syndrome (DIOS) is a gastrointestinal complication of cystic fibrosis (CF). This study reviews the long-term follow-up of DIOS across two decades in Israeli CF patients. The DIOS patients were more prone to meconium ileus, Aspergillus spp. airway colonization and frequent hospitalizations then the DIOS-negative CF patients. DIOS recurrence was observed in 77% of patients. Conservative treatment was successful in 82% of the episodes, which makes it the treatment of choice for DIOS management. The survival rate was similar to the CF patients without DIOS.
