Objective:To analyze the clinical features and diagnostic modalities of adult Meckel′s diverticulum.Methods:The clinical manifestations, diagnostic modalities, treatments and pathology of 40 adult patients with Meckel′s diverticulum admitted in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2013 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were 32 male cases (80.0%) and 8 female cases (20.0%) with male to female ratio of 4∶1 and a median age of 39 years. Patients with gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain and asymptomatic patients accounted for 52.5% (21/40), 12.5%(5/40) and 35.0% (14/40), respectively. The average minimum hemoglobin was(67±14)g/L and 47.6% patients (10/21) received blood transfusion. The preoperative diagnostic rates of CT scan, angiography, Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy and tagged red blood cell (TRBC) scan were 1/39, 0/7, 3/7 and 2/4, respectively. The diagnostic rates of capsule endoscopy and retrograde single balloon enteroscopy were 1/12 and 17/20 (85.0%). The distance between Meckel′s diverticulum and ileocecal valve was 20-170 cm. Histopathological examination revealed ectopic gastric mucosa and ectopic pancreatic tissue in 23.5% (7/34) and 5.9% (2/34) patients.Conclusions:Adult Meckel′s diverticulum is more common in male patients, often presenting with gastrointestinal bleeding as the initial symptom. Diagnosis is most commonly made through retrograde single balloon enteroscopy, and surgery is the recommended treatment method.
Résumé
Resumen La colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (CPRE) es un procedimiento útil en el manejo de enfermedades biliopancreáticas. Los pacientes con alteración anatómica del tracto gastrointestinal representan un desafío técnico por múltiples razones. Con técnicas como la enteroscopia de doble balón (EDB) es posible realizar una CPRE en estos pacientes. El caso que se presenta es el primero de este tipo publicado en Colombia sobre una paciente con gastrectomía total con reconstrucción en Y-de-Roux y coledocolitiasis.
Abstract Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a valuable procedure in managing biliopancreatic diseases. Patients with anatomical alteration of the gastrointestinal tract represent a technical challenge for multiple reasons. With techniques such as double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE), it is possible to perform ERCP in these patients. The case was first published in Colombia on a female patient with total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction and choledocholithiasis.
Résumé
ABSTRACT Background Behçet's disease is a rare immune-mediated disorder that can affect the gastrointestinal tract. The prevalence and extension of small bowel involvement is largely unknown. Objective The aim of this study was to describe the small bowel lesions diagnosed by double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) and to verify if these findings were associated to the presence of gastrointestinal symptoms and disease activity after long-term follow-up. Methods This study included 19 Behçet's disease patients who underwent DBE. After a mean follow-up of 15 years the endoscopic findings were associated to the presence of gastrointestinal symptoms, disease activity and current therapy through collection of electronic medical records. Results A total of 63.2% patients were female and the mean age was 37 years at the time of DBE. Mean disease duration at baseline was 24 years. 11 patients had no gastrointestinal symptoms and eight patients presented either abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding or diarrhea. The average procedure time was 1 hour and 30 minutes and the ileum was achieved in all patients but one. Small bowel ulcers were diagnosed in 78.9%, with 63.1% of jejunal involvement. Two patients presented only small bowel edema and two were normal by DBE. Eight patients had concomitant gastric ulcers. Gastrointestinal symptoms prior to DBE were present in 36.8% of the patients and, after follow-up, all of them persisted with some of the symptoms. Bleeding was reported by three patients at baseline and persisted in only one patient. The frequency of treatment with steroids and immunomodulators was 31.6% and 57.9% at baseline, respectively, and 21% in both at the end of the follow-up. No patient was treated with biologics at the time of the DBE procedure and the current rate of biologic use is 21%. Conclusion Small bowel involvement in Behçet's disease was frequently demonstrated by DBE even in asymptomatic patients. Understanding clinical evolution of the disease over the years and the impact of such diagnosis still represents a challenge, possibly with the need for novel treatment.
RESUMO Contexto A doença de Behçet é uma doença imunomediada rara que pode afetar o trato gastrointestinal. A prevalência e extensão do envolvimento do intestino delgado é desconhecida. Objetivo O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever as lesões do intestino delgado diagnosticadas por enteroscopia de duplo balão (EDB) e verificar se esses achados estavam associados à presença de sintomas gastrointestinais e atividade da doença após seguimento de longo prazo. Métodos Este estudo incluiu 19 pacientes com doença de Behçet que foram submetidos a EDB. Após seguimento médio de 15 anos, os achados endoscópicos foram associados à presença de sintomas gastrointestinais, atividade da doença e terapia atual por meio de coleta de prontuário eletrônico. Resultados Um total de 63,2% dos pacientes eram do sexo feminino e a média de idade era de 37 anos no momento da EDB. A duração média da doença no início do estudo foi de 24 anos. 11 pacientes não apresentaram sintomas gastrointestinais e oito pacientes apresentaram dor abdominal, sangramento gastrointestinal ou diarréia. O tempo médio do procedimento foi de 1 hora e 30 minutos e o íleo foi atingido em todos os pacientes, exceto em um. Úlceras de intestino delgado foram diagnosticadas em 78,9%, sendo 63,1% de acometimento jejunal. Dois pacientes apresentaram apenas edema de intestino delgado e dois apresentaram EDB normais. Oito pacientes tinham úlceras gástricas concomitantes. Sintomas gastrointestinais prévios à EDB estavam presentes em 36,8% dos pacientes e, após o seguimento, todos persistiram com alguns dos sintomas. Sangramento foi relatado por três pacientes no início do estudo e persistiu em apenas um paciente. A frequência de tratamento com esteroides e imunomoduladores foi de 31,6% e 57,9% no início do estudo, respectivamente, e 21% em ambos ao final do seguimento. Nenhum paciente foi tratado com biológicos no momento da EDB e a taxa atual de uso de biológicos é de 21%. Conclusão O envolvimento do intestino delgado na doença de Behçet foi frequentemente demonstrado por EDB mesmo em pacientes assintomáticos. Compreender a evolução clínica da doença ao longo dos anos e o impacto de tal diagnóstico ainda representa um desafio, possivelmente com a necessidade de novos tratamentos.
Résumé
Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) presents in early childhood, and children have a higher risk of intussusception due to a smaller abdominal space than adults. Double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) has been proven to be a safe and effective method for the diagnosis and treatment of small bowel lesions, but the efficacy and safety of its prophylactic polypectomy in children with PJS need to be determined. Data of 6 children (median age 10.6 years) diagnosed as having PJS from 2018 to 2020 were reviewed. DBE was performed 14 times, and 3 children were successfully relieved of intussusception after DBE treatment. The sizes of the resected intussusception polyps were 50 mm×60 mm, 40 mm×35 mm, and 50 mm×40 mm. Symptoms associated with polyps (abdominal pain, intussusception and obstruction) relieved after DBE in all children. No direct complications such as bleeding or perforation were found during the operation, and no recurrence of intussusception was found during follow-up. It can be seen that DBE polypectomy is safe and effective in the treatment of intussusception caused by PJS.

Objective:To evaluate the influence on the results and safety of double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) at different combination time.Methods:Patients who received combined DBE procedures in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from April 2019 to August 2020 were divided into the one-day combination group and the non-one-day combination group. The complete enteroscopy rate, time of anterograde approach, time of retrograde approach, total time of combined approach, adverse events, hospital stay and cost were compared.Results:Among 119 patients who received DBE, 23 patients were excluded due to small intestinal stenosis. The complete enteroscopy rate was 92.9% (39/42) in the one-day group and 74.1% (40/54) in the non-one-day group, showing significant difference ( χ2=4.390, P=0.036). There were significant differences in the time of retrograde approach (35.59±23.29 min VS 55.10±19.04 min, t=-4.080, P<0.001), total time of combined approach (89.10±27.82 min VS 114.20±24.55 min, t=-4.254, P<0.001), hospital stay (9.24±3.76 d VS 11.76±4.41 d, t=-2.599, P=0.011) between the two groups. There were no significant differences in the time of anterograde approach, hospital cost or adverse events between the two groups. Conclusion:Combined DBE on one day yields a higher complete enteroscopy rate, less examination time and less hospital stay, which is worth of clinical application.

Abstract Introduction: The study of the small bowel is a challenging task that has sparked interest and progress in medicine. In this context, double balloon enteroscopy (DBE) has allowed the direct visualization of the small intestine. Objective: To describe indications, procedure characteristics, findings, complications, and follow-up of patients taken to DBE at the Hospital de San José, Bogotá, between November 2011 and April 2019. Methodology: Case series study. Patients with a clinical indication or diagnostic images suggestive of small bowel lesion were included. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: 45 enteroscopies were performed in 44 patients, with a median age of 58 years. The main indication was potential small bowel bleeding (53.3%) and chronic diarrhea (11.1%). Anterograde procedures were more frequent. Most of the results were normal (46.7%); tumors (11.1%), Crohn's disease (8.9%), and ulcers/erosions (6.7%) were among the most frequent findings. The diagnostic yield was 53.3% and the correlation with capsule endoscopy (CE) was 37.5%, and with imaging studies 42.9%. There were no complications. 91.1 % of patients were followed up on after a median of 56 months, with 78.1 % reporting symptom remission. The aim of enteroscopy was diagnostic in 84.4%. Conclusions: DBE is useful in the evaluation of the small intestine with a therapeutic possibility. The results are similar to those reported in the world literature. Follow-up can define the need for repeating the procedure, performing further studies, or symptom resolution.

Background: Enteroscopy-based biopsy pathology has high diagnostic value for suspected small bowel diseases. Retrograde single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE) is difficult to operate due to the influence of colonic segment. Transparent cap has been widely used in the diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedure, which is conducive for inserting the enteroscope and stabilizing the intestinal cavity. Aims: To explore the role of transparent cap in retrograde SBE. Methods: A total of 64 cases of patients who were hospitalized for retrograde SBE in Suzhou Wuzhong People's Hospital were recruited and allocated into 2 groups according to the random number table method, with 32 cases in each group. Patients in experimental group received cap-assisted SBE and those in control group received routine SBE. All procedures were performed by an experienced senior endoscopist. Outcomes measured included time to reach the ileocecus, terminal ileum intubation rate, depth of insertion, diagnostic yield, and the related complications. Results: The mean time to reach the ileocecus was shorter in experimental group than in control group [(11.8±2.0) min vs. (13.6±2.8) min, P0.05). No severe complications were observed in all the cases. Conclusions: Cap-assisted retrograde SBE is an efficient method for optimizing the intubation rate, insertion depth and procedure time, and is suitable for promotion in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT Intestinal tuberculosis and Crohn's disease are a diagnostic challenge because of the clinical, radiological and endoscopic similarity. The histological and microbiological findings are positive in less than 50%, which delays the correct treatment, putting the patient at risk. We reported a 34-year-old immunocompetent patient with 4 years of malabsorptive diarrhea, weight loss, nocturnal diaphoresis, abdominal pain and an ulcer with stenosis in the jejunum was found; she received empirical anti- tuberculosis treatment with clinical improvement. Later the culture was positive for M. tuberculosis.
RESUMEN La tuberculosis intestinal y la enfermedad de Crohn son un desafío diagnóstico debido a la similitud clínica, radiológica y endoscópica. Los hallazgos histológicos y microbiológicos son positivos en menos del 50%, lo que retrasa el correcto tratamiento, poniendo en riesgo al paciente. Reportamos un paciente de 34 años inmunocompetente con 4 años de diarrea malabsortiva, pérdida de peso, diaforesis nocturna, dolor abdominal y se encontró una úlcera con estenosis en yeyuno; recibió tratamiento empírico antituberculoso con mejoría clínica. Posteriormente el cultivo fue positivo para M. tuberculosis.

Resumen La lipomatosis intestinal es un término utilizado para describir una proliferación de tejido graso, histológicamente normal, en el tracto gastrointestinal. Se caracteriza por la presencia de tumores benignos, asintomáticos, de crecimiento lento y de origen subepitelial. En raras ocasiones, estos tumores pueden ser sintomáticos y asociarse a complicaciones importantes como obstrucción y sangrado gastrointestinal. Así, la lipomatosis intestinal es una patología rara, con pocos casos reportados en la literatura y ninguno registrado en Colombia. A continuación, presentamos dos casos evaluados y seguidos en nuestro servicio de Unión de Cirujanos S.A.S de la Universidad de Caldas. El primero es el caso de un hombre de 70 años con historia de episodios de dolor abdominal tipo cólico, asociados a distensión y diarrea posprandial. La endoscopia digestiva alta inicial reportó múltiples lesiones amarillentas, submucosas, en el duodeno, con diagnóstico histológico de lipomas. En este caso, se realizó una videocápsula endoscópica para determinar la distribución y las características de las lesiones presentes en todo el tracto gastrointestinal, así como para valorar la presencia de complicaciones. El otro caso es el de un hombre de 81 años, quien ingresó a la institución por lipotimia y sangrado rectal. Por tanto, se realizó una endoscopia alta y una colonoscopia, cuyos resultados fueron normales. Luego de ello, se efectuó una videocápsula endoscópica que mostró lesiones lipomatosas; una de ellas, con sangrado y angiodisplasia al lado. Estas lesiones se manejaron mediante enteroscopia de doble balón y terapia con argón plasma.
Abstract Intestinal lipomatosis is a proliferation of histologically normal fatty tissue in the gastrointestinal tract. It is characterized benign, asymptomatic, slow growing tumors with sub-epithelial origins. On rare occasions, they become symptomatic and can be associated with major complications such as gastrointestinal obstructions and bleeding. This rare pathology has been reported several times in the literature but not in Colombia prior to this study. We present two cases that were evaluated and followed up at the Unión de Cirujanos SAS and the University of Caldas in Manizales, Colombia. The first is a 70-year-old man who had a history of colic associated with bloating and postprandial diarrhea. The initial upper digestive endoscopy reported multiple yellowish, submucosal lesions in the duodenum. His histological diagnosis was lipomas. In this case, an endoscopic video capsule determined the distribution and characteristics of the lesions throughout the gastrointestinal tract and assessed complications. The second is an 81-year-old man who entered the institution due to lipothymia and rectal bleeding. Upper endoscopy and colonoscopy were normal, but a videocapsule endoscopy showed lipomatous lesions one of which was bleeding and had adjacent angiodysplasia. He was treated with double balloon enteroscopy and Argon plasma therapy.

For improved examination of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) and device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE), bowel preparation is an essential issue. Multiple factors like air bubbles, food material in the small bowel, and gastric and small bowel transit time affect the small bowel visualization quality (SBVQ), diagnostic yield (DY) and cecal completion rate (CR). Bowel preparation with polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution enhances SBVQ and DY, but it has no effect on CR. Bowel preparation with PEG solution 2 L is similar to PEG 4 L in SBVQ, DY, and CR. Bowel preparation with fasting or PEG solution combined with anti-foaming agents like simethicone enhance SBVQ, but it has no effect on CR. Bowel preparation with prokinetics is not commonly recommended. Optimal timing for purgative bowel preparation has yet to be established. However, the studies regarding bowel preparation for DAE are not sufficient. European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) recommends 8–12 hours fasting from solid food and 4–6 hours fasting from liquids prior to the antegrade DAE. For retrograde DAE, colonoscopy preparation regimen is recommended. This article reviews the literature and ESGE, 2013 Korean published guidelines regarding bowel preparation for VCE and DAE, following suggestion for optimal bowel preparation for VCE and balloon enteroscopy.

Acute suppurative cholangitis (ASC) is an acute infectious disease of the biliary tract caused by bacterial infection and biliary obstruction. Common bile duct stone is the most common cause of biliary obstruction. Due to the characteristics of rapid onset, rapid progress, various complications, and high mortality of ASC, it has attracted more and more attention in clinical practice. The treatment of ASC includes anti-infective therapy and relief of obstruction, and early relief of obstruction is the key to successful treatment. Endoscopic therapy has long been regarded as the first choice for the relief of obstruction, and with the development of medical technology, various new endoscopic techniques are gradually applied in the treatment of ASC and have thus become the new choices for surgeons and patients. With reference to the advantages and disadvantages of different treatment techniques, this article reviews the endoscopic therapies for ASC caused by common bile duct stones.
Résumé
A trichobezoar is a type of bezoar that is composed of hair. In most cases, it is confined to the stomach, but in rare cases, it may extend to the small intestine. This condition is referred to as Rapunzel syndrome. The therapeutic method for bezoar removal depends on its type, location, and size. Generally, the treatment for Rapunzel syndrome involves surgical laparotomy. Endoscopic removal has also been effective in some cases. On the other hand, complications, such as respiratory difficulty and esophageal impaction may be encountered during endoscopic removal. Until now, the successful endoscopic removal of trichobezoars has been limited to the stomach or duodenum. This paper reports the case of a 4-year-old female patient with Rapunzel syndrome whose trichobezoar reached the proximal jejunum. The trichobezoar was removed without complications using an electrosurgical knife and snare through a single-balloon enteroscopy. The trichobezoar can be removed successfully using enteroscopy under general anesthesia without abdominal laparotomy in young children. Therefore, this method of removal can be considered preferentially for children with Rapunzel syndrome.

Objective To investigate the value of double-balloon enteroscopy and CT enterography for the diagnosis of intestinal Crohn disease ( CD ) . Methods Data of 125 patients with suspected CD undergoing double-balloon enteroscopy and CT enterography were reviewed. Diagnosis was made based on pathological,endoscopic findings and clinic follow-up results. Detection rates and diagnostic rates of double-balloon enteroscopy and CT enterography for intestinal CD were compared. Results The detection and diagnostic rates of intestinal CD by double-balloon endoscopy were 62. 4%( 78/125) and 94. 8% ( 74/78) , respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of double-balloon enteroscopy in the diagnosis of intestinal CD were 100. 0%, 92. 2% and 96. 8%, respectively. The detection and diagnostic rates of intestinal CD by CT enterography were 44. 8%( 56/125 ) and 89. 3% ( 50/56 ) , respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CT enterography in the diagnosis of intestinal CD were 67. 6%, 88. 2% and 76. 0%, respectively. Both the detection rate and the diagnostic rate of double-balloon enteroscopy in intestinal CD were higher than those of CT enterography. Conclusion Double-balloon enteroscopy shows high application value for the diagnosis of intestinal CD, but CT enterography before enteroscopy can guide the selection of endoscopic approach, reduce economic expenditure and alleviate patients' pain, so CT enterography could be the first choice for intestinal CD patients with contraindications of enteroscopy.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of maintaining general anesthesia without neuromuscular blockade in oral double-balloon enteroscopy. Methods Totally 120 patients undergoing oral double-balloon enteroscopy under general anesthesia were randomly assigned into two groups:the observation group and the control group. The observation group was not given muscle relaxants for anesthesia maintenance,while the control group was given muscle relaxants punctually. Observation indexes were monitored,including the mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),peak airway pressure (Ppeak)and end-tidal CO2 partial pressure (PETCO2 )before anesthesia (T0),immediately after intubation (T1),at the time of endoscopy placement (T2),at the end of endoscopy withdrawal (T3),and at the time of waking-up (T4). The cases of spontaneous breathing recovery before the end of endoscopy,postoperative recovery time,extubation time,length of PACU stay,postoperative adverse reactions and satisfactory rates were recorded. Results Twelve cases were removed by the exclusion criteria,and the remaining 108 cases completed the study,including 56 cases in the observation group and 52 cases in the control group. The one-time success rate of induction was both 100% in the two groups. There were no significant differences in MAP,HR,Ppeak,and PETCO2 between the two groups at each observation point (all P>0. 05),and the same is true for within group comparison with T0 (all P>0. 05). The recovery rate of spontaneous respiration in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [100% (56/ 56)VS 42%(22/ 52),χ2 = 44. 73,P = 0. 000]. The awaken time,extubation time and length of PACU stay were 6±2 min,10±3 min,and 11± 4 min,respectively,in the observation group,compared with 15± 5 min (t= -12. 64,P= 0. 000),17±5 min (t = -8. 90,P = 0. 000),and 17±7 min (t = -5. 73,P = 0. 000)in the control group. None of the patients required assisted ventilation. Hypoxemia occurred in 2 cases and nausea in 3 cases in the control group,while only nausea occurred in 1 patient in the observation group. The overall incidence of adverse reactions was not statisticaly different between the two groups (P > 0. 05). Anesthesia satisfaction rate of two groups was 100%. Conclusion It is feasible and safe to perform oral double-balloon enteroscopy without muscle relaxants during maintaining under general anesthesia,with quick recovery of spontaneous breathing and awakening,early extubation and less cost.
Résumé
Background: Meckel diverticulum is one of the most common congenital malformations of the gastrointestinal tract. It is relatively rare in adults and is difficult to make a preoperative diagnosis. Aims: To analyze the clinical characteristics of Meckel diverticulum in adults and to investigate the diagnostic value of single-balloon enteroscopy for adult Meckel diverticulum. Methods: A retrospective study was performed in patients diagnosed as adult Meckel diverticulum by single-balloon enteroscopy at Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University from Apr. 2011 to Jan. 2019. Results: A total of 30 adult Meckel diverticulum patients were enrolled. Of them, 26 were male and 4 were female with a mean age of (36.1±14.6) years. The mean duration of symptoms ranged from 6 days to 30 years. The prevalence of gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain/diarrhea, and anemia was 73.3% (22/30), 40.0% (12/30), and 50.0% (15/30), respectively. All the diverticula were detected by retrograde single-balloon enteroscopy. The mean distance of diverticulum from the ileocecal valve was (98.7±29.5) cm, and the size of diverticulum opening was 3.25 cm on average. Ulcer was found in 11 cases. Sixteen cases underwent surgical resection, and 12.5% and 18.8% of them were proved to contain ectopic gastric mucosa and ectopic pancreas, respectively. The diagnostic yield of capsule endoscopy and imaging modalities were relatively low (39.1% and 20.7%, respectively). Conclusions: Single-balloon enteroscopy has a high diagnostic value for Meckel diverticulum in adults and may provide guidance for clinical treatment. For adults suspected of Meckel diverticulum, retrograde single-balloon enteroscopy is recommended.
Résumé
A trichobezoar is a type of bezoar that is composed of hair. In most cases, it is confined to the stomach, but in rare cases, it may extend to the small intestine. This condition is referred to as Rapunzel syndrome. The therapeutic method for bezoar removal depends on its type, location, and size. Generally, the treatment for Rapunzel syndrome involves surgical laparotomy. Endoscopic removal has also been effective in some cases. On the other hand, complications, such as respiratory difficulty and esophageal impaction may be encountered during endoscopic removal. Until now, the successful endoscopic removal of trichobezoars has been limited to the stomach or duodenum. This paper reports the case of a 4-year-old female patient with Rapunzel syndrome whose trichobezoar reached the proximal jejunum. The trichobezoar was removed without complications using an electrosurgical knife and snare through a single-balloon enteroscopy. The trichobezoar can be removed successfully using enteroscopy under general anesthesia without abdominal laparotomy in young children. Therefore, this method of removal can be considered preferentially for children with Rapunzel syndrome.
