The advent of capsule endoscopy as a non-invasive method of small bowel examination has enabled direct visualisation of small bowel disease including damage due to chemical or physical agents that are not detected by conventional radiology. A significant proportion of patients with small bowel injury due to side effects of drugs (e.g. NSAID-induced enteropathy) are oligo- or asymptomatic, and capsule endoscopy enables early identification of mild morphological mucosal changes that, in some cases, progress to unique diaphragm-like small bowel strictures. This chapter summarises and illustrates the spectrum of small bowel lesions induced especially by iatrogenic effect (including radiation and drugs).

摘要

The advent of capsule endoscopy as a non-invasive method of small bowel examination has enabled direct visualisation of small bowel disease including damage due to chemical or physical agents that are not detected by conventional radiology. A significant proportion of patients with small bowel injury due to side effects of drugs (e.g. NSAID-induced enteropathy) are oligo- or asymptomatic, and capsule endoscopy enables early identification of mild morphological mucosal changes that, in some cases, progress to unique diaphragm-like small bowel strictures. This chapter summarises and illustrates the spectrum of small bowel lesions induced especially by iatrogenic effect (including radiation and drugs).
