Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the diagnostic value of double balloon endoscopy (DBE) for gastrointestinal disease.MethodsClinical data of 53 patients with suspected intermediate gastrointestinal diseases who underwent DBE procedures were retrospectively analyzed for detection rate,complications and the incidence of adverse reactions.ResultsAll of 53 patients underwent successful DBE,Procedures were performed via mouth ( n =26),anus ( n =9 ) and the combined routes ( n =18 ).And definite diagnosis was made in 46 cases (86.79％),including upper gastrointestinal (above ligament of Treitz) disease in 3 cases (5.66％),intermediate gastrointestinal disease in 41 cases (77.36％ ) and lower gastrointestinal disease in 2 cases (3.77％).All 53 patients were tolerant to the operation and anesthesia.No severe complications like bleeding,perforation,intestinal torsion,mesenteric tear,pancreatitis or anesthetic accident occured.Several patients showed abdominal flatulence,transient abdominal pain.Some patients in oral route reported slight throat discomfort or slight nasal bleeding.Incarceration occurred in 1 case due to friction of endotracheal intubation and the silicone tube,which was released after deflation and removed out.2 patients showed mild diarrhea with low fever,and the symptoms were self-healing without special treatment in 48 h.ConclusionDBE is of high diagnostic value for gastrointestinal diseases with a high safety.
