Abstract

Background

Bowel ultrasound has been proven to be a useful tool in the management of Crohn’s disease, particularly in the assessment of intra-abdominal complications, most of which require surgery.

Materials and methods

The National Library of Medicine has been searched for articles on the use of bowel ultrasound in Crohn’s disease focusing on aspects of interest to the surgeon.

Results and conclusions

Several studies have demonstrated that bowel ultrasound may be useful to reduce the risk of unnecessary laparotomy in patients presenting acute abdomen with suspected chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Bowel ultrasound has been proven to be of value in the follow-up of Crohn’s disease patients since allowing early diagnosis of intra-abdominal complications and, therefore, optimising the diagnostic and surgical approach. At follow-up, bowel ultrasound may accurately diagnose early post-operative complications and long-term disease recurrence. In patients submitted to conservative surgery, ultrasonography reveals changes in diseased bowel walls that may be predictive of recurrence of the disease, and hence determinant in the choice of medical treatment.

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
