Case description

The small intestine is the most difficult part of the gastrointestinal tract to evaluate due to its length and complex loops. Disadvantages of conventional endoscopic techniques such as push enteroscopy and colonoscopy with ileoscopy include limited endoscopic examination of the small bowel and sedation requirements. A complete endoscopic evaluation was previously possible only with intraoperative endoscopy.
