Background/Aims
The prevalence of gallstone disease in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) is higher than in the general population. However, risk factors of gallstone disease in these patients remain unclear. Thus, we investigated the prevalence and risk factors of gallstone disease in Korean patients with UC.
Methods
Patients diagnosed with UC who underwent abdominal imaging studies between 1997 and 2020 were investigated using a well-established referral center-based large volume inflammatory bowel disease cohort. The prevalence and clinical characteristics of patients with gallstone disease were evaluated and compared with those without gallstone disease.
Results
Overall, 2,811 patients with UC were enrolled. During the follow-up period (mean, 5.7 years), 198 patients (7.0%) were diagnosed with gallstone disease and compared with those without gallstone disease (n = 2,613). The proportion of extensive colitis at maximum extent, primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), history of cytomegalovirus, corticosteroid use, immunomodulatory use, colectomy, and appendectomy were significantly higher in the gallstone group (all P< 0.05). In multivariate analyses, age ≥ 60 years at gallstone evaluation (odds ratio [OR], 1.027; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.002–1.052; P= 0.033), PSC (OR, 6.304; 95% CI, 3.162–12.565; P< 0.001), and history of colectomy (OR, 2.494; 95% CI, 1.222–5.087; P= 0.012) were significant risk factors for gallstone disease in patients with UC.
Conclusions
The prevalence of gallstone disease in Korean patients with UC was 7.0%, and age ≥ 60 years at gallstone evaluation, PSC, and history of colectomy were significant risk factors for UC patients with gallstone disease.

Clinical characteristics and long-term disease course in patients with Crohn’s disease as diagnosed by video capsule endoscopy: a multicenter retrospective matched case-control study

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Video capsule endoscopy is rarely used to diagnose Crohn’s disease in patients with negative ileocolonoscopy or cross-sectional image findings. We evaluated clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes of these rare cases.
Methods
This multicenter study included patients with Crohn’s disease from 3 tertiary hospitals from January 2007 to October 2022. Patients with normal findings on ileocolonoscopy and computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance (MR) enterography but had ulcerations at the small bowel detected by video capsule endoscopy were included. The controls were patients with abnormal findings on endoscopy or CT/MR enterography. Controls were case-matched in a ratio of 3:1 for sex, calendar year of diagnosis, and age at diagnosis.
Results
Among 3,752 patients, 24 (0.6%) were diagnosed with Crohn’s disease using video capsule endoscopy findings. The disease location (P< 0.001) and behavior at diagnosis (P= 0.013) of the cases significantly differed from that of controls. The perianal fistula modifier (25.0% vs. 33.3%, P= 0.446) did not differ significantly between the 2 groups. Initial disease activity and C-reactive protein and fecal calprotectin levels were significantly lower in cases versus controls. The median Lewis score was 838 (interquartile range, 393–1,803). Over 10 years of follow-up, the cases showed significantly lower cumulative risk of complicated behavior, biologics use, Crohn’s disease-related hospitalization, and surgeries (log-rank test P< 0.05).
Conclusions
Patients with Crohn’s disease whose lesions were observed only by video capsule endoscopy were rare, and exhibit different clinical characteristics and a more favorable long-term disease course compared to those who were conventionally diagnosed.

Cancer
Endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early colorectal cancer
Seung Wook Hong, Jeong-Sik Byeon
Intest Res 2022;20(3):281-290.   Published online July 26, 2022
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2021.00169
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Early colorectal cancer refers to cancer in the colorectum that is confined to the mucosa or submucosa and does not invade the muscularis propria, irrespective of lymph node or distant metastasis. As the number of persons undergoing screening colonoscopy increases, the proportion of patients diagnosed with precancerous colorectal lesions and early colorectal cancer also increases. In the last decade, innovative optical technologies for endoscopic diagnosis have been introduced and endoscopic treatment techniques such as endoscopic submucosal dissection have provided major breakthroughs in the management of early colorectal cancer. With these remarkable developments, endoscopic treatment has established itself as an alternative to surgical resection in the treatment of early colorectal cancer. This review will discuss the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early colorectal cancer. Furthermore, the unmet needs in this field and the latest research addressing those issues will be summarized.

Metronidazole-induced encephalopathy in a patient with Crohn's disease
Jihye Kim, Jaeyoung Chun, Jae Yong Park, Seung Wook Hong, Joo Young Lee, Jin Woo Kang, Seongjun Hwang, Sang-Bae Ko, Jong Pil Im, Joo Sung Kim
Intest Res 2017;15(1):124-129.   Published online January 31, 2017

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub

Metronidazole is a widely used antibiotic for the treatment of anaerobic bacterial infections. Metronidazole-induced encephalopathy (MIEP) is a rare but potentially reversible disease. The mechanism of MIEP remains unclear, and differences in the neurotoxic effects of oral versus intravenous (IV) metronidazole administration have not yet been determined. We report the case of a Crohn's disease (CD) patient who experienced encephalopathy immediately after a single IV dose of metronidazole following long-term exposure to the oral form of the drug. The 64-year-old man with intractable CD experienced a sudden change in mental status, aphasia, and muscle weakness after IV administration of metronidazole. He had previously taken metronidazole orally for 13 years and received intermittent IV metronidazole treatments for CD exacerbation. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed high-intensity signals in the bilateral medial thalamus and the midbrain and pontine tegmentum on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. After discontinuation of metronidazole, the high-intensity brain MRI signals resolved and the patient's mental status dramatically improved; however, the patient exhibited mild cognitive dysfunction 2 months after the onset of encephalopathy.
