Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Requiring Surgical Intervention.

ABSTRACT

Wireless capsule endoscopy is a relatively new diagnostic technique for the detection of small bowel disease. Currently represents an increasingly used method for diagnostic evaluation of the small intestine. It is important for surgeons to be familiar with its uses and complication that may arise. We report an interesting case of spontaneous video capsule entrapment in small bowel Crohn’s disease in which diagnosis was made radiologically.
