Endoscopic Factors Influencing Fecal Calprotectin Value in Crohn's Disease.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Fecal calprotectin [fcal] is a biomarker of Crohn's disease [CD] endoscopic activity. Identifying the endoscopic situations in which fcal is less reliable remains unexplored. We aimed to determine the endoscopic factors influencing fcal level in CD. METHODS Overall, 53 CD patients consecutively and prospectively underwent colonoscopy, with CD Endoscopic Index of Severity [...
متن کاملFecal calprotectin Level in patients with IBD and noninflammatory disease of colon: a study in Babol, Northern, Iran
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disease with a relapsing course of inflammation in the digestive system. Endoscopy and histopathology are the golden standard methods for detection and assessment of IBD. A distinct increase of fecal calprotectin level can be a useful marker for the diagnosis of IBD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the fecal calprotectin level in p...
متن کاملFecal Immunochemical Test and Fecal Calprotectin Results Show Different Profiles in Disease Monitoring for Ulcerative Colitis
Background/Aims Both fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and fecal calprotectin (Fcal) results are useful biomarkers for ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the situations in which each marker should be used are largely unknown. Methods A total of 110 colonoscopy intervals of UC patients were assessed, and correlations between changes in colonoscopic findings and changes in the two aforementioned f...
متن کاملPinworm Infestation Mimicking Crohns' Disease
We here report a case of a young man who presented to his general practitioner with diarrhea. Inflammatory bowel disease was suspected and a colonoscopy showed aphthous lesions suggestive of Crohns' disease but biopsies revealed eggs of Enterobius vermicularis. When treated for this parasite, his symptoms were alleviated and a followup colonoscopy revealed a normal colon and distal ileum. Enter...
متن کاملA new rapid test for fecal calprotectin predicts endoscopic remission and postoperative recurrence in Crohn's disease.
INTRODUCTION Fecal calprotectin (FC), as determined by the enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) test, has been proposed as a promising biomarker of endoscopic activity in Crohn's disease (CD). However data on its accuracy in predicting endoscopic remission according to location and postoperative recurrence (POR) is scarce. Our objective was to evaluate the ability of FC determined by a new quantit...
