| Core Tip |
Diabetic gastroenteropathy is a common complication, poorly diagnosed in patients with long-term disease. These can present esophageal, gastric, intestinal, and even anorectal symptoms. Gastrointestinal Symptom Severity Index, Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index, and Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life scores, as well as symptomatic assessment scales, contribute to the diagnosis. Apart from gastric emptying scintigraphy, currently, the use of endoscopic capsules has allowed the evaluation of abnormal transit. Jejunal fluid aspiration and culture allow assessment of bacterial overgrowth. Medical treatment, as well as adequate glycemic control, improve the symptoms, and delay the progression of the disease; in selected patients, pyloroplasty and gastric electrical stimulation are useful. |
