Background and study aim: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection occur in the whole gastorointestinal (GI) tract in post allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) can obtain through GI tract images non-invasively. The study aim was to evaluate the efficacy of pan-enteric survey with CCE for post allo-HSCT. Patients and methods: This was a prospective observational study. CCE using PillCam COLON2® was performed for pan-enteroscopy on the day 21-28 post allo-HSCT. If CCE images showed suspicious of GVHD and/or CMV infection, or the patients had abdominal symptoms, conventional endoscopy and/or enteroscopy and histological examination were performed. If CCE did not show abnormal findings nor GI symptoms until the day 60, the patient was defined as free of GVHD and/or CMV infection. Results: 30 patients were scheduled for enrollment. All CCE reached colon. The per site sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CCE findings compared with endoscopy and/or enteroscopy were 73%, 99% and 90%, respectively. The per patient sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CCE for any findings were 58%, 86% and 73%, respectively. In CCE finding positive group, there was a tendency to be diagnosed as histopathology GVHD and/or CMV infection. Conclusions: Pan-enteric survey using CCE was applicable for post allo-HSCT. |
