RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Available evidence assessing the impact of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) following gastrectomy is limited. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the prevalence of SIBO after gastrectomy and its association with malnutrition. To describe the antibiotic treatment required to correct it and if nutritional status improves. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective cohort study was performed at the Agencia Sanitaria Costa del Sol (Costa del Sol Health Agency) from 2012 to 2015. A hydrogen-methane breath test with oral glucose overload was performed. Demographic variables and nutritional parameters were collected at baseline and one month after effective treatment of SIBO. The antibiotic regimens and the number of treatment lines used were assessed. RESULTS: Sixty gastrectomy patients were analysed, 58.3% of which were male. A sub-analysis of the curve was performed at 45min to minimise possible false positives, and SIBO was identified in 61.6% of cases. SIBO patients tended to have a lower BMI, although this trend was not statistically significant. After treatment with rifaximin, 94.6% of patients were still positive for SIBO, which fell to 85.7% after metronidazole. The rate of total antibiotic treatment failure was 67.6%. No statistically significant changes were found in nutritional parameters after treatment. CONCLUSIONS: SIBO was identified in 61.6% of patients after gastrectomy. No correlation was found with any malnutrition parameter. Rifaximin and metronidazole were found to be largely ineffective in eradicating SIBO. When treatment was effective, the impact on malnutrition was negligible and may have been associated with other factors.

Eosinophilic enteritis is a rare disease characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of different wall layers of the gastrointestinal tract, from the esophagus to the rectum, by eosinophilic cells. The most frequently affected structures are the stomach and small intestine. The pathogenesis of eosinophilic enteritis is not well understood and is often related to a personal or familial history of atopy. Clinical symptoms depend on the affected layers. Thus malabsorptive syndrome, intestinal strictures or ascites depend on a mucosal, muscular or serosa layer infiltration, respectively. We present three cases of eosinophilic gastroenteritis with distinct clinical presentations.

Antecedentes: La evidencia disponible que evalúa el impacto de la presencia de sobrecrecimiento bacteriano de intestino delgado (SIBO) después de una gastrectomía es escasa. Objetivos: Evaluar la frecuencia de SIBO tras gastrectomía y su asociación con malnutrición. Describir las líneas antibióticas necesarias para su corrección y si mejora el estado nutricional. Material y métodos: Estudio de cohortes prospectivo en el ámbito de la Agencia Sanitaria Costa del Sol desde 2012 hasta 2015. Se realizó test del aliento en hidrógeno y en metano espirado con sobrecarga oral de glucosa. Recogida de variables demográficas y valoración nutricional, basal y al mes del tratamiento eficaz del SIBO. Se evaluaron las pautas antibióticas y el número de tratamientos. Resultados: Se analizaron 60 pacientes gastrectomizados, 58,3%varones. Se realizó un subanálisis de la curva a los 45min para minimizar los posibles falsos positivos con una frecuencia de SIBO del 61,6%. En presencia de SIBO, se observó una tendencia no significativa a presentar un menor IMC. Tras el tratamiento con rifaximina, el SIBO permaneció positivo en el 94,6% y tras metronidazol, en el 85,7%. El multifracaso de la terapia antibiótica fue de 67,6%. No hay cambios estadísticamente significativos en parámetros nutricionales después del tratamiento. Conclusiones: El SIBO está presente en el 61,6% de los pacientes gastrectomizados, sin que se demuestre asociación con el deterioro nutricional. Rifaximina y metronidazol son escasamente efectivos en la erradicación del SIBO. Cuando este se consigue, el efecto sobre la malnutrición es escaso, pudiendo correlacionarse con otros factores

La enteritis eosinofílica es una rara enfermedad caracterizada por la infiltración de cualquier tramo del tracto gastrointestinal, desde el esófago hasta el recto, por células eosinófilas, aunque el estómago y el intestino delgado son las estructuras más frecuentemente afectadas. Su etiopatogenia se desconoce, y en muchas ocasiones se relaciona con antecedentes personales o familiares de atopia. Las manifestaciones clínicas varían en función de las capas afectadas; así, la presentación como síndrome de malabsorción digestiva, estenosis intestinal o ascitis dependerá de si la eosinofilia predomina en la mucosa, muscular o serosa, respectivamente. Se presentan 3 casos clínicos con diferentes formas de presentación de gastroenteritis eosinofílica
