Crohn's Stenosis with Video Capsule Retention & Removal by Peranal Single-Balloon Enteroscopy

Abstract: Capsule retention is a rare complication, occurring in only 2% of the patients referred to capsule endoscopy for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding and suspected Crohn's disease.1 and 2 The management of capsule retention depends on its dignity and on being symptomatic or not. The therapeutic options are removal by (device-assisted) enteroscopy, medication (e.g., steroids with suspected Crohn's disease), and surgery. The capsule film, which in most cases pictures the stenosis and its localization, can help in therapeutic decision making. In benign diseases like Crohn's disease or non-steriodal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-enteropathy, not performing surgery is often recommended. In these cases the application of medication and/or performing peroral or peranal (device-assisted) enteroscopy, both for diagnostic/therapeutic reasons and the removal of the capsule, are adequate resources.
