Small-bowel capsule endoscopy and device-assisted enteroscopy for diagnosis and treatment of small-bowel disorders: European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) Guideline - Update 2022

Marco Pennazio et al.

Summary: According to the recommendations from ESGE, small-bowel capsule endoscopy is the recommended first-line examination for suspected small-bowel bleeding due to its excellent safety profile and patient tolerability. In cases of overt suspected small-bowel bleeding, small-bowel capsule endoscopy should be conducted as soon as possible, ideally within 48 hours after the bleeding episode to maximize diagnostic and therapeutic benefits. Routine second-look endoscopy before small-bowel capsule endoscopy is not recommended for patients with suspected small-bowel bleeding or iron-deficiency anemia. Conservative management is recommended for patients with suspected small-bowel bleeding and negative small-bowel capsule endoscopy. If lesions are identified, device-assisted enteroscopy can be used for confirmation and possibly treatment. Small-bowel capsule endoscopy is recommended as the first-line examination for patients with iron-deficiency anemia when small bowel evaluation is indicated. Small-bowel capsule endoscopy is also recommended in patients with suspected Crohn's disease and negative ileocolonoscopy findings, as well as in patients with unremarkable or nondiagnostic findings from dedicated small-bowel cross-sectional imaging if it is likely to influence patient management. A patency capsule should be used before small-bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with established Crohn's disease to decrease the capsule retention rate. Device-assisted enteroscopy can be used as an alternative to surgery for retrieving foreign bodies in the small bowel in patients without acute intestinal obstruction. Additionally, DAE-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (DAE-ERCP) is recommended as a first-line endoscopic approach to treat pancreaticobiliary diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy, except for Billroth II patients.

Diagnostic yield of small bowel capsule endoscopy in obscure gastrointestinal bleeding: a real-world prospective study

Samanta Romeo et al.

Summary: In a real-world prospective study, small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) demonstrated a high diagnostic yield in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB), detecting clinically relevant lesions in the majority of cases. SBCE was found to be valuable in determining the diagnostic work-up and clinical outcome in patients with OGIB.

Indications, Detection, Completion and Retention Rates of Capsule Endoscopy in Two Decades of Use: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Pablo Cortegoso Valdivia et al.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the performance measures of capsule endoscopy (CE), including completion, detection, and retention rates. The results showed that the pooled rates for all capsule types were acceptable, with obscure GI bleeding being the most common indication for CE.

Summary: Iron deficiency anaemia is a major global cause of disease burden, diagnosed through blood testing and treated with iron replacement therapy. Causes include poor diet and gastrointestinal pathologies, with endoscopy and radiological scanning used for diagnosis and assessment in some cases.
