まとめ
ビデオカプセル内視鏡 (VCE) は一般的に安全ですが,稀に上部消化器系保持が発生する可能性があります. このケースは,合併症を予防するために,VCEの前に老年患者の喉袋のスクリーニングの重要性を強調しています.
科学分野:
- 胃腸内科
- 医療用イメージング
背景:
- ビデオカプセル内視鏡 (VCE) は小腸を視覚化するための標準的な診断ツールです.
- 一般的には安全ですが,カプセル保持などの珍しい合併症は,通常は下部胃腸に発生します.
- 胃腸上部の収縮は例外的にまれである.
研究 の 目的:
- ビデオカプセルが未診断の 喉袋に留まったという 珍しいケースを報告する
- 高齢の患者における この合併症の重要性を強調するためです
- VCE前に喉袋の処置前評価の必要性を強調する.
主な方法:
- VCEを受けた94歳の患者の症例報告
- 袋にカプセルが留まっていることを記録する.
- 内視鏡検査の必要性なく臨床評価と追跡調査を行う.
主要な成果:
- 94歳の患者の喉の袋にカプセルが留まっていた.
- 耳袋にVCEが留まることは初めて報告されました
- 保存されたカプセルは内視鏡で取り出す必要はなかった.
結論:
- VCEカプセルの喉袋保持は珍しいが,潜在的な合併症です.
- 特に高齢者の場合,VCEの前に,喉袋の詳細な患者経歴の評価が不可欠です.
- 積極的なスクリーニングは 副作用や不必要な介入を防ぐことができます

329
Capsule endoscopy, or wireless or video capsule endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure for examining the entire gastrointestinal tract. Patients swallow a capsule about the size of a vitamin tablet. The capsule is equipped with a transmitter, a battery, an LED light source, and a color video camera to capture images throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This procedure is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, tumors, polyps, ulcers,...

82.7K
Cells pull particles inward and engulf them in spherical vesicles in an energy-requiring process called endocytosis. Phagocytosis (“cellular eating”) is one of three major types of endocytosis. Cells use phagocytosis to take in large objects—such as other cells (or their debris), bacteria, and even viruses.

Surgical interventions for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are essential in managing symptoms and addressing complications. The selection of surgical procedures is contingent upon the specific conditions and complications that stem from these illnesses.

The pharynx, a tubular structure framed by skeletal muscle and lined with mucous membrane, extends continuously from the nasal cavities. It is segmented into three major areas: the nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx.
Nasopharynx
The nasopharynx, bordered by the conchae of the nasal cavity, serves exclusively as an air conduit. In its superior region, the pharyngeal tonsils or adenoids are located. These tonsils are clusters of lymphoid reticular tissue akin to a lymph node. The precise...

853
The Barium Swallow Study, or a Barium Esophagogram, is a diagnostic imaging method used to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. It employs barium sulfate, a radiopaque contrast material, to provide clear images of the upper digestive system, helping to identify abnormalities, diseases, or structural issues.
Purpose and Procedure
Patients undergoing this procedure ingest a liquid containing barium sulfate with a chalky...
