Tu1576 CAPSULE ENDOSCOPY IS USEFUL FOR POSTOPERATIVE TIGHT CONTROL MANAGEMANT IN PATIENTS WITH CROHN'S DISEASE

In order to improve the postoperative course of patients with Crohn ’s disease (CD), it is important to optimize the postoperative medical treatments based on scheduled assessments of the endoscopic activity. However, there are insufficient data about the endoscopic activity of small bowel lesions that are common in patients with CD. We aimed to assess the postope rative activity of small bowel lesions using capsule endoscopy (CE), and to analyze the association between the treatment optimization based on the postoperative endoscopic activity and the subsequent course.
