In this review, Dr Haluszka provides an excellent summary on double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE), the first technique to provide both complete diagnostic examination of the small bowel and a full range of therapeutic maneuvers and diagnostic sampling. Still, despite its clear advantage, DBE remains largely restricted to tertiary-referral centers.
