IntroductionCrohn’s disease diagnosis and monitoring remains a great clinical challenge and often requires multiple testing modalities. Assessing Crohn’s disease activity in the entire gastrointestinal (GI) tract using a panenteric capsule endoscopy (CE) system could be used as an alternative to colonoscopy and cross-sectional imaging. This study assessed the accuracy and safety of panenteric CE in Crohn’s disease as compared with ileocolonoscopy (IC) and/or magnetic resonance enterography (MRE).MethodsA prospective, multicentre study was performed in subjects with established Crohn’s disease. Individuals with proven small bowel patency underwent a standardised bowel preparation, followed by CE ingestion and IC either the same or following day. MRE, IC, and CE interpretations were performed by blinded central readers using validated scoring systems. The primary endpoint was the overall sensitivity of CE vs MRE and/or IC in Crohn’s disease subjects.ResultsStudy enrolment included 158 subjects from 21 sites in the USA, Austria, and Israel. Of those, 99 were included in the analysis. Imaging modality scores indicated none to mild inflammation in the proximal small bowel and colon, but discrepant levels of inflammation in the terminal ileum. Overall sensitivity for active enteric inflammation (CE vs MRE and/or IC) was 94% vs 100% (p=0.125) and specificity was 74% vs 22% (p=0.001). Sensitivity of CE was superior to MRE for enteric inflammation in the proximal small bowel (97% vs 71%, p=0.021), and similar to MRE and/or IC in the terminal ileum and colon (p=0.500–0.625). There were seven serious adverse advents of which three were related to the CE device.ConclusionPanenteric CE is a reliable tool for assessing Crohn’s disease mucosal activity and extent compared with more invasive methods. This study demonstrates high performance of the panenteric CE as compared to MRE and/or IC without the need for multiple tests in non-stricturing Crohn’s disease.Trial registration numberClinicalTrials.gov NCT03241368

Abstract Background Ileo-colonoscopy with biopsies is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis and management of Crohn’s disease (CD). In contrast, the role of small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) is limited currently in cases where ileo-colonoscopy and imaging techniques raise doubts on the diagnosis or cannot explain certain clinical manifestations of Crohn’s disease. The aim of our study was to determine whether there are patients with endoscopically confirmed established CD who could get additional benefit by SBCE. Methods Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from 6301 patients subjected to SBCE in our department from 1st March 2003 to 18th February 2021. Patients with CD diagnosed by ileo-colonoscopy or total colonoscopy only (because the ileo-caecal valve could not be intubated) prior to SBCE were included in the study and biopsies. SBCE had been performed only in patients who lacked any clinical and/or imaging (CT/MRE) evidence of bowel obstruction. The presence and extent of mucosal lesions, namely local and/or diffuse erythema, erosions and ulcers (aphthous, superficial and/or deep) throughout the small intestine, which may be difficult to identify by traditional imaging, could either explain clinical manifestations unrelated to the findings of colonoscopy or led onto reassessment of applied treatments were sought by SBCE. Results The study sample consisted of 1002 patients (males/females: 511/491, mean age ± SD: 52.6±27.3). Among these, CD had been diagnosed with colonoscopy (and not ileo-colonoscopy) in 293 (29.2%) subjects and small bowel involvement was seen in 104 (35.5%) patients. The vast majority of these patients had lesions only in the terminal ileum (n=81, 77.8%), while the remaining patients (n=23, 22.2%) had additional lesions in more proximal parts of the small bowel. Among the 709 (70.8%) patients in whom CD had been diagnosed by ileo-colonoscopy, lesions in the terminal ileum were found in 407 (57.4 %) patients; SBCE revealed more proximal lesions in 104 patients (25.5%). In the remaining 307 patients (43.3%) in whom ileo-colonoscopy did not reveal terminal ileum involvement, more proximal small bowel lesions were seen in 35 (11.4%) patients. These lesions were mainly apthoid ulcers or larger ulcers, findings that led to a change in therapeutic management in 17 patients (48.6%). Conclusion SBCE identifies more proximal small bowel lesions in a substantial number of patients with CD established by traditional endoscopic techniques. When these lesions are more severe and extensive they may lead onto re-evaluation of the personalized therapeutic strategies.

Background Endoscopically defined mucosal healing in Crohn’s disease is associated with improved outcomes. Panenteric capsule endoscopy enables a single non-invasive assessment of small and large bowel mucosal inflammation. Aims and methods: This multicentre observational study of patients with suspected and established Crohn’s disease examined the feasibility, safety and impact on patient outcomes of panenteric capsule endoscopy in routine clinical practice. The potential role in assessment of disease severity and extent by a comparison with existing clinical and biochemical markers is examined. Results Panenteric capsule endoscopy was performed on 93 patients (71 with established and 22 with suspected Crohn’s disease). A complete examination occurred in 85% (79/93). Two cases (2.8%) of capsule retention occurred in patients with established Crohn’s disease. Panenteric capsule resulted in management change in 38.7% (36/93) patients, including 64.6% (32/48) of those with an established diagnosis whose disease was active, and all three patients with newly diagnosed Crohn’s disease. Montreal classification was upstaged in 33.8% of patients with established Crohn’s disease and mucosal healing was demonstrated in 15.5%. Proximal small bowel disease upstaged disease in 12.7% and predicted escalation of therapy (odds ratio 40.3, 95% confidence interval 3.6–450.2). Raised C-reactive protein and faecal calprotectin were poorly sensitive in detecting active disease (0.48 and 0.59 respectively). Conclusions Panenteric capsule endoscopy was feasible in routine practice and the ability to detect proximal small bowel disease may allow better estimation of prognosis and guide treatment intensification. Panenteric capsule endoscopy may be a suitable non-invasive endoscopic investigation in determining disease activity and supporting management decisions.

Abstract Background Terminal ileitis (TI) is a common condition in clinical practice and may be associated with a wide variety of diseases, mostly Crohn’s disease (CD). Data regarding predictors of CD diagnosis in isolated TI are lacking, particularly concerning small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) findings. Aim To evaluate predictive factors for CD diagnosis in patients with isolated TI detected during ileocolonoscopy, submitted to SBCE. Methods Retrospective study including consecutive patients undergoing SBCE after diagnosis of TI without colonic mucosal abnormalities on ileocolonoscopy between January 2016 and September 2019. Demographic, clinical, biochemical, endoscopic and imaging data were collected. The diagnosis of CD was based on clinical evaluation, endoscopic, histological, radiological, and/or biochemical investigations. Results One hundred and two patients with isolated ileitis on ileocolonoscopy were included. After performing SBCE, 34.3% of the patients had a diagnosis of CD. All CD diagnosed patients had positive SBCE findings. Extraintestinal manifestations (p = 0.003), weight loss (p = 0.01), abnormal imaging (p = 0.04) and positive SBCE findings (p = 0.005) were independently associated with CD diagnosis. Regarding SBCE, presence of proximal small-bowel disease (p = 0.02), diffuse findings (p = 0.002) and presence of moderate to severe inflammatory activity (Lewis Score≥790) (p < 0.001) were independently associated with CD diagnosis. Conclusion SBCE is a valuable tool that should be systematically used in patients presenting with isolated TI, since it enabled CD diagnosis in approximately one-third of patients. A diagnosis of CD should be considered when a patient with TI shows extraintestinal manifestations, weight loss, abnormal imaging and positive SBCE findings, especially proximal involvement, diffuse findings and the presence of moderate to severe inflammatory activity.
