PTU-013 Capsule Endoscopy in Young Patients with Iron Deficiency Anaemia

IntroductionRecent data imply young pts (≤50 yrs) investigated with capsule endoscopy(CE) for iron deficiency anaemia(IDA) show higher diagnostic yield(DY) for sinister findings. We aim to investigate DY of CE in a large cohort of young IDA pts and factors associated with sinister pathology.MethodsR...

Zusammenfassung:IntroductionRecent data imply young pts (≤50 yrs) investigated with capsule endoscopy(CE) for iron deficiency anaemia(IDA) show higher diagnostic yield(DY) for sinister findings. We aim to investigate DY of CE in a large cohort of young IDA pts and factors associated with sinister pathology.MethodsRetrospective multicentre study (2010–2015); consecutive pts ≤ 50 yrs undergoing CE for IDA at 19 centres in 12 countries. Exclusion criteria: ongoing/previous gastrointestinal(GI) bleeding; age > 50 or
