          Abstract

          RESUMEN La enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal es un problema de salud que actualmente genera alta morbilidad en el paciente pediátrico. Existen múltiples métodos diagnósticos que permiten su evaluación, entre los cuales y de creciente uso, está la ecografía digestiva. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue mostrar una panorámica actualizada de la utilidad e idoneidad de esta técnica en el seguimiento de la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal en pacientes pediátricos. Se hizo una recopilación y revisión de la literatura nacional e internacional de mayor novedad y profundidad en el tratamiento del tema, en un período de 4 meses (febrero de 2022 a mayo de 2022). La estrategia de búsqueda adoptada fue el uso de las palabras clave o descriptores en español e inglés como: enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal, pediatría, enfermedad de Crohn, colitis ulcerosa, ultrasonido, ecografía digestiva. En total se utilizaron 50 artículos, de diferentes bases de datos como:Scielo, PubMed/Medline, Ebesco, Clinical Key y Springer. Se escogieron 30 citas para realizar la revisión, donde se analizó la importancia de la técnica en la descripción de las características ecográficas intestinales en pacientes pediátricos, confirmándose el papel que tiene en la identificación e intervención temprana de la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal.

A estratégia de busca adotada foi o uso de palavras-chave ou descritores em espanhol e inglês, tais como: doença inflamatória intestinal; pediatria; doença de Crohn; colite ulcerativa; ultrassom; ultrassom digestivo. Foram utilizados 50 artigos de diferentes bases de dados, como: Scielo, PubMed/Medline, Ebesco, Clinical Key e Springer. Foram selecionadas 30 citações para revisão, analisando a importância da técnica na descrição das características ultra-sonográficas intestinais em pacientes pediátricos, confirmando seu papel na identificação e intervenção precoce da doença inflamatória intestinal.

          ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease is a health problem that currently causes high morbidity in pediatric patients. There are several diagnostic methods that allow its evaluation, among which gastrointestinal ultrasound is increasingly used. The aim of this research was to provide an updated review of the usefulness and suitability of this technique in the follow-up of inflammatory bowel disease in pediatric patients. A compilation and review of the national and international literature of greater novelty and depth in the treatment of the subject was made over a period of 4 months (February 2022 to May 2022). The search strategy adopted was the use of keywords or descriptors in Spanish and English such as: inflammatory bowel disease; pediatrics; Crohn's disease; ulcerative colitis; ultrasound; digestive ultrasound. A total of 50 articles were used from different databases such as: Scielo, PubMed/Medline, Ebesco, Clinical Key and Springer. Thirty citations were selected for review, analyzing the importance of the technique in the description of intestinal ultrasound characteristics in pediatric patients, confirming its role in the identification and early intervention of inflammatory bowel disease.

          How to perform gastrointestinal ultrasound: Anatomy and normal findings

          Gastrointestinal ultrasound is a practical, safe, cheap and reproducible diagnostic tool in inflammatory bowel disease gaining global prominence amongst clinicians. Understanding the embryological processes of the intestinal tract assists in the interpretation of abnormal sonographic findings. In general terms, the examination principally comprises interrogation of the colon, mesentery and small intestine using both low-frequency and high-frequency probes. Interpretation of findings on GIUS includes assessment of bowel wall thickness, symmetry of this thickness, evidence of transmural changes, assessment of vascularity using Doppler imaging and assessment of other specific features including lymph nodes, mesentery and luminal motility. In addition to B-mode imaging, transperineal ultrasonography, elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography are useful adjuncts. This supplement expands upon these features in more depth.

            Systematic Review: Gastrointestinal Ultrasound Scoring Indices for Inflammatory Bowel Disease

            Serial measurements of luminal disease activity may facilitate inflammatory bowel disease management. Gastrointestinal ultrasound is an easily performed, non-invasive alternative to other assessment modes. However, its widespread use is limited by concerns regarding validity, reliability, and responsiveness. We systematically identified ultrasound scoring indices used to evaluate inflammatory bowel disease activity and examine their operating characteristics. Electronic databases were searched from inception to June 14, 2019 using pre-defined terms. Studies that reported on gastrointestinal ultrasound index operating properties in an inflammatory bowel disease population were eligible for inclusion. Study characteristics, index components, and operating property data [ie, validity, reliability, responsiveness, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value] were extracted. The QUADAS-2 tool was used to examine study-level risk of bias. Of the 2610 studies identified, 26 studies reporting on 21 ultrasound indices were included. The most common index components included bowel wall thickness, colour Doppler imaging, and bowel wall stratification. The correlation between ultrasound indices and references standards ranged r = 0.62–0.95 and k = 0.40–0.96. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive values ranged 39–100%, 63–100%, 73–100%, 57–100%, and 40–100%, respectively. Reliability and responsiveness data were limited. Most [92%, 24/26] studies received at least one unclear or high risk of bias rating. Several gastrointestinal ultrasound indices for use in inflammatory bowel disease have been developed. Future research should focus on fully validating existing or novel gastrointestinal ultrasound scoring instruments for assessment of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.

              Gastrointestinal Ultrasound (GIUS) in Intestinal Emergencies – An EFSUMB Position Paper

              An interdisciplinary group of European experts summarizes the value of gastrointestinal ultrasound (GIUS) in the management of three time-critical causes of acute abdomen: bowel obstruction, gastrointestinal perforation and acute ischemic bowel disease. Based on an extensive literature review, statements for a targeted diagnostic strategy in these intestinal emergencies are presented. GIUS is best established in case of small bowel obstruction. Metanalyses and prospective studies showed a sensitivity and specificity comparable to that of computed tomography (CT) and superior to plain X-ray. GIUS may save time and radiation exposure and has the advantage of displaying bowel function directly. Gastrointestinal perforation is more challenging for less experienced investigators. Although GIUS in experienced hands has a relatively high sensitivity to establish a correct diagnosis, CT is the most sensitive method in this situation. The spectrum of intestinal ischemia ranges from self-limited ischemic colitis to fatal intestinal infarction. In acute arterial mesenteric ischemia, GIUS may provide information, but prompt CT angiography is the gold standard. On the other end of the spectrum, ischemic colitis shows typical ultrasound features that allow correct diagnosis. GIUS here has a diagnostic performance similar to CT and helps to differentiate mild from severe ischemic colitis.
