Summary

Peroperative enteroscopy aids in diagnosing and treating small intestine polyposis and angiodysplasias missed by other methods. This minimally invasive technique proved effective in two patient cases for accurate diagnosis and successful treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Current diagnostic methods for small intestine lesions often lack sufficient sensitivity.
  • Intestinal polyposis and angiodysplasias can be challenging to detect and manage using conventional approaches.

Observation:

  • Peroperative enteroscopy was employed in two patients with undiagnosed small intestine lesions.
  • This technique allowed for direct visualization and intervention during surgery.

Findings:

  • The procedure successfully identified lesions that were previously undetectable.
  • Peroperative enteroscopy facilitated the precise treatment of intestinal polyposis and angiodysplasias in both cases.

Implications:

  • Peroperative enteroscopy represents a valuable tool for enhancing diagnostic accuracy in small intestine pathology.
  • This method offers a viable solution for treating difficult-to-diagnose gastrointestinal conditions, improving patient outcomes.
