Background/Aims
Crohn’s disease (CD) may involve the upper parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Clinical features of upper GI CD (UGICD) are not well characterized in the Gulf region. We therefore aimed to assess the prevalence and clinical characteristics of patients diagnosed with UGICD.
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of all patients diagnosed with CD who underwent upper GI endoscopy between 2012 and 2017 at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, irrespective of age. Patients who had endoscopy of the upper GI tract at baseline and had histologically confirmed UGICD were included. Data on patients’ demographics, clinical characteristics, extraintestinal manifestations and complications were reviewed.
Results
We identified 78 CD patients who underwent upper GI endoscopy from our medical records. The mean age was 17.2±8.7 years and 55.1% were males. Of the total, 19 out of 78 patients (24.4%) had histologically confirmed UGICD (3 esophageal, 16 gastric, and 9 duodenal), of which 52.6% were symptomatic. Disease distribution was ileal in 57.8%, colonic in 21.1% and ileo-colonic in 21.1%. A non-stricturing and non-penetrating phenotype was reported in 89.4%, stricturing in 5.3%, and penetrating in 5.3%. Perianal disease was found in 10.5%. UGICD was complicated by stricture formation in 2 patients (esophageal and gastric).
Conclusions
The prevalence of UGICD is considered high among CD Saudi patients who undergo upper GI endoscopy at baseline, and is asymptomatic in 47.4% of patients. This reported prevalence is not dissimilar from reports originating from Western countries.

AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Symptomatic ulcerative colitis (UC) can be a chronic, disabling condition. Flares in disease activity are associated with many of the negative impacts of mild-to-moderate UC. Rapid resolution of flares can provide benefits to patients and healthcare systems. i Support Therapy–Access to Rapid Treatment (iSTART) introduces patient-centered care for mild-to-moderate UC. iSTART provides patients with the ability to self-assess symptomology and self-start a short course of second-line treatment when necessary. An international panel of experts produced consensus statements and recommendations. These were informed by evidence from systematic reviews on the epidemiology, mesalazine (5-ASA) treatment, and patient use criteria for second-line therapy in UC. Optimized 5-ASA is the first-line treatment in all clinical guidelines, but may not be sufficient to induce remission in all patients. Corticosteroids should be prescribed as second-line therapy when needed, with budesonide MMX® being a preferred steroid option. Active involvement of suitable patients in management of UC flares has the potential to improve therapy, with patients able to show good accuracy for flare self-assessment using validated tools. There is a place in the UC treatment pathway for an approach such as iSTART, which has the potential to provide patient, clinical and economic benefits.
