Abstract:
Background: Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) can display the different layers and structures of the intestinal wall, however, its value in diagnosis and assessment of disease activity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is still in exploration. Aims: To investigate the value of colonoscopy and EUS in diagnosis and evaluation of disease severity of IBD. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in patients with active IBD admitted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from September 2017 to September 2019. The results and characteristics of colonoscopy and EUS were analyzed. Results: One hundred and five active IBD patients were enrolled, including 68 cases of ulcerative colitis (UC) and 37 cases of Crohn's disease (CD). Spearman correlation coefficient analysis revealed that the endoscopic score of UC (ulcerative colitis endoscopic index of severity, UCEIS) and CD (simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease, SES-CD) were both positively correlated with the disease severity (r
