Small bowel tumors (SBTs) have been increasingly diagnosed in recent decades. The pathogenesis of this increment is largely unknown, but advances in radiological and endoscopic methods facilitate the improvement of the diagnosis. Capsule endoscopy (CE) and device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE) allow the clinician to assess the entire small bowel in the search for suspicious lesions, or a cause of symptoms. In this review, we discuss the role of enteroscopy, techniques and strategies in the diagnosis and management of SBTs, and a brief description of the most common tumors.
