| Core Tip |
Small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) is an important tool in the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease (CD). The necessity and consensus protocol of preprocedural bowel pre-treatment for SBCE in patients with CD have not been established. This study aimed to describe the contribution of preprocedural bowel preparation in SBCE for patients with CD with small intestinal lesions by comparing the diagnostic performance and mucosal visibility. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature because it showed that the diagnostic performance and mucosal visibility of small-bowel capsule endoscopy for CD were not significantly improved by pre-procedural bowel preparation. |
