Core Tip |
Our work analyzed the therapeutic mana-gement of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) and concluded that a very significant proportion of patients modify their therapeutic regimens after performing video capsule endoscopy (VCE), even in those with long-term disease or those without symptoms. This finding highlights the importance of this procedure in the management of CD. The systematic use of Patency capsule is controversial; however, we showed in our study that after excluding patients with negative patency, who did not undergo VCE, none of the patients had video capsule retention during VCE, highlighting the importance of Patency capsule in this setting.
