“…Capsule endoscopy is a novel means used in the small intestine, and this form of endoscopy is increasingly adopted for its non-invasiveness, safety, and capability of picturing the entire GI tract. It has received increased attention since PillCam (Given Imaging Ltd., Israel) was issued, followed by Norika series (RF System Lab, Japan) and EndoCapsule series (Olympus Corporation, Japan) (Ogata et al, 2008;Iddan et al, 2000;Uehara and Hoshina, 2003;LePane et al, 2007;Kopáčová et al, 2010). The capsule endoscopy OMOM (Jinshan Science & Technology Inc., Chongqing, China) has also had extensive application in clinical practice Liao et al, 2008).…”

In clinical practice, examination of the hemorrhagic spot (HS) remains difficult. In this paper, we describe a remote controlled capsule (RCC) micro-system with an automated, color-based sensor to identify and localize the HS of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In vitro testing of the detecting sensor demonstrated that it was capable of discriminating mimetic intestinal fluid (MIF) with and without the hemoglobin (Hb) when the concentration of Hb in MIF was above 0.05 g/ml. Therefore, this RCC system is able to detect the relatively accurate location of the HS in the GI tract.

“…1 The inflammatory process may range from mucosal inflammation to the involvement of the deeper bowel layers, resulting in the ulceration and narrowing of the jejunum and ileum. 2 Because chronic non-granulomatous jejunoileitis involves the small bowel, it is difficult to examine the lesions using conventional techniques. The development of wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) has facilitated the exploration of the small bowel by providing direct images.…”

Chronic Non-granulomatous Ulcerative Jejunoileitis Assessed by Wireless Capsule Endoscopy

Chronic non-granulomatous jejunoileitis is a rare disease characterized by malabsorption, abdominal pain, and diarrhea that causes shallow ulcers in the small bowel. The etiology of chronic non-granulomatous jejunolieitis remains unknown. A 69-year-old man complained of abdominal pain and lower extremity edema. A 99m-Tc albumin scan showed increased radioactivity at the left upper quadrant, suggesting protein-losing enteropathy. A small bowel follow-through did not disclose any lesions. Wireless capsule endoscopy revealed several small bowel ulcers and strictures. A jejunoileal segmentectomy with end-to-end anastomosis was performed, and the histologic examination revealed non-granulomatous ulcers with focal villous atrophy. Ruling out all other possible diagnoses, we diagnosed our patient with chronic non-granulomatous ulcerative jejunoileitis. Postoperatively, the patient's abdominal pain and lower extremity edema improved, and the serum albumin normalized. This is the first case of chronic non-granulomatous ulcerative jejunoileitis localized by wireless capsule endoscopy and treated successfully with segment resection.
