摘要
在北美,肠道超声(IUS)在肠道疾病临床评估中的应用仍处于起步阶段。我们介绍了一例将 IUS 用作克罗恩病治疗辅助手段的 19 岁男性病例。经过内窥镜检查和诊断后,IUS 与其他检查一起用于阐明疾病的活动程度。它可以识别和监测游离液体和粘膜炎症等并发症。即使在临床症状明显缓解的情况下,IUS 也能提供疾病活动的标记。该病例表明,IUS 可以加强疾病监测,为治疗提供依据。
Intestinal Ultrasound: Envisioning a New Future for Crohn's Disease Management.
The use of intestinal ultrasound (IUS) in the clinical assessment of intestinal disorders remains in its infancy in North America. We present a case in which IUS was used as a complement to Crohn's disease treatment in a 19-year-old man. After endoscopy and diagnosis, IUS was employed alongside other investigations to elucidate the extent of disease activity. It allowed identification and monitoring of complications such as free fluid and mucosal inflammation. IUS provided a marker of disease activity, even during apparent clinical remission. This case demonstrates that IUS can enhance disease monitoring and inform direction of therapy.
