Overtube-assisted enteroscopy and capsule endoscopy for the diagnosis of small-bowel polyps and tumors: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract: Background and study aims: Several studies have evaluated the utility of double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) and capsule endoscopy (CE) for patients with small-bowel disease showing inconsistent results. The aim of this study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity of overtube-assisted enteroscopy (OAE) as well as the diagnostic concordance between OAE and CE for small-bowel polyps and tumors. Patients and methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies in which the results of OAE … Show more

“…In this context, we suggest that indications for BAE should be individualized in patients with Spigelman score III or IV who may need further study of the extent of jejunal involvement as potential surgery candidates. Regarding the method for enteroscopic evaluation, BAE was chosen because of the possibility of histological confirmation and therapeutic interventions if necessary 29 . Although capsule endoscopy has been demonstrated to be useful and safe for the surveillance of jejunal-ileal polyps in patients with FAP 27 , it may underestimate the number of polyps and miss the detection of large lesions 30 .…”

“…Sulbaran et al ., in a meta-analysis and systematic review, including 15 studies and 821 patients demonstrated high overall prevalence of SBTs through DAE, performed in patients presenting with OGIB; with 89% sensitivity, and 97% specificity ( 31 ).…”

“…Another disadvantage of VCE is the inability to locate the tumour precisely [3,[56][57][58]. Balloon enteroscopy or spiral enteroscopy are not associated with this shortcoming, but their diagnostic efficiency is not very high [3,[59][60][61][62]. Enteroscopy enables not only the detection of small intestinal lesions, but also of endoscopic treatment [63].…”
