1. Evaluating inflammatory activity in Crohn’s disease by cross-sectional imaging techniques
Resumo A avaliação da atividade inflamatória intestinal em pacientes com doença de Crohn tem sido tradicionalmente um desafio, principalmente pela dificuldade do acesso endoscópico ao intestino delgado. Por muito tempo os estudos baritados foram a única opção disponível, tendo sido progressivamente substituídos por novas técnicas de imagens seccio

2. Influência da localização da enterocolite necrosante na mortalidade de recém-nascidos submetidos à laparotomia
Objetivo: Avaliar a influência da localização da enterocolite necrosante neonatal na mortalidade de recém-nascidos (RN) submetidos à laparotomia exploradora. Métodos: Estudo de coorte prospectiva de 141 recém-nascidos com ECN submetidos consecutivamente à laparotomia exploradora no período de novembro de 1991 a dezembro de 2005. Foram avaliados dado

4. Two cases of alpha chain disease from Nigeria.
The first two cases of alpha chain disease from Central Africa are reported from Nigeria. Both patients show the classical features of the disease with diffuse involvement of the small bowel and malabsorption. The patients were lost to follow-up but died soon after diagnosis.

5. Distinct Elevation of Levels of Anti-Caenorhabditis elegans Antibody in Sera of Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Dysregulation of immune responses to intestinal exogenous antigens contributes to the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease, but the specific antigen responsible for the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease is unknown. We measured serum antibody titers against Caenorhabditis elegans antigens. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgG subclass anti-C. elegans

6. Small bowel obstruction after nephrectomy for Wilms' tumor. A report of the National Wilms' Tumor Study-3.
OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to define the incidence and etiology of small bowel obstruction (SBO) after nephrectomy for Wilms' tumor. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Intestinal obstruction is one of the most common postoperative complications after nephrectomy for nephroblastoma. However, few reports have evaluated risk factors for SBO. Radiation therapy h

7. Pseudomembranous colitis associated with changes in an ileal conduit.
A case of antibiotic associated pseudomembranous colitis following total cystectomy is reported, in which there was involvement of the ileal conduit. The small bowel remaining in situ was uninvolved. Bacteriological studies revealed Clostridium difficile and the toxin in both colon and ileal conduit. Relevant publications concerning pathogenesis are discusse

8. Colonic wall thickness measured by ultrasound: striking differences in patients with cystic fibrosis versus healthy controls.
BACKGROUND: Colonic strictures represent an advanced stage of fibrosing colonopathy in patients with cystic fibrosis. AIMS: To clarify whether ultrasonography can identify patients with an early stage of fibrosing colonopathy and to determine clinical factors that influence bowel wall thickening. PATIENTS: Ninety patients with cystic fibrosis, median age 10

9. Effect of resection margins on the recurrence of Crohn's disease in the small bowel. A randomized controlled trial.
OBJECTIVE: The authors assess the effect of surgical margin width on recurrence rates after intestinal resection of Crohn's Disease (CD). BACKGROUND: The optimal width of margins when resecting DC of the small bowel is controversial. Most studies have been retrospective and have had conflicting results. METHODS: Patients undergoing ileocolic resection for CD

10. A patient with cerebral Whipple disease with gastric involvement but no gastrointestinal symptoms: a consequence of local protective immunity?
Whipple disease is a granulomatous infectious disease caused by Tropheryma whipplei. The bacteria accumulate within macrophages, preferentially in the intestinal mucosa. Disease manifestation seems to be linked to immunological abnormalities of macrophages. We describe a patient with cerebral Whipple disease who presented with changes in mental status, confu

11. The impact of disease pattern, surgical management, and individual surgeons on the risk for relaparotomy for recurrent Crohn's disease.
OBJECTIVE: The authors provide a multivariate analysis of a large single-center experience with limited surgery for Crohn's disease. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: During the past decade, the aim of surgery for Crohn's disease has shifted from radical operation, achieving inflammation-free margins of resection, to "minimal surgery," intended to remove just grossly
