CHAPTER 6 | SMALL INTESTINALDISORDERS
105 CFU/ ml or the presence of atypical ora on small intestinal aspirates. Treatment includes addressing any primary cause and using antibiotics such as metronidazole, co- amoxiclav, co­trimoxazole, ciprooxacin, noroxacin, and rifaximin. Some patients may require cyclical antibiotics on rotation. Drugs such as anticholinergics and opioids should be avoided because they slow gut transit and may exacerbate symptoms.
Intraepithelial lymphocytosis alone on duodenal biopsies is not sucient to diagnose coeliac disease in the absence of villous atrophy and an inammatory inltrate in the lamina propria. Inammatory bowel disease and pancreatic exocrine insuciency are unlikely here.

23. C. Colestyramine
• Bile acid malabsorption (BAM) is common in patients with Crohn’s disease especially in the context of distal ileal resection
• BAM usually responds to bile acid sequestrants such as colestyramine
• There is a dose– response relationship between the severity of BAM and the eect of bile acid sequestrants
The most likely diagnosis here is BAM. Resection of the distal ileum (usually >100cm) prevents reabsorption of bile salts that subsequently enter the colon causing diarrhoea. BAM may also be caused by primary diseases of the terminal ileum, HIV infection, or defects in bile acid synthesis or transport mechanisms. Previous cholecystectomy and post- infectious diarrhoea may predict BAM.
The severity of BAM can be assessed by measuring seven- day retention of an orally administered, selenium- labelled bile acid (SeHCAT scan):10%– 15% retention=mild; 5%– 10%=moderate; <5%=severe. The lower the retention, the more likely the patient is to respond to bile acid sequestrants (colestyramine, colesevelam, colestipol).
Recurrence of Crohn’s disease or bacterial overgrowth is less likely. There is no consistent evidence for the use of mesalazine in the management of Crohn’s disease.

24. C. NSAID metabolites
• Non- steroidal anti- inammatory drug (NSAID) enteropathy classically presents with small bowel ulceration, abdominal pain, iron- deciency anaemia and hypoalbuminaemia
• Patients may often deny taking NSAIDs
• Diaphragm- like structures in the small bowel are pathognomonic
The association between gastro- duodenal ulceration and NSAID use is well recognized but jejunum, ileum, and colon can also be aected. Aspirin appears to be less harmful than other NSAIDs at inducing small bowel damage. The signs and symptoms of NSAID enteropathy can be varied but typically include iron- deciency anaemia, hypoalbuminaemia (from a protein- losing enteropathy), and small bowel ulceration. Abdominal pain may result from partial small bowel obstruction caused by diaphragm- like structures. These are rare, brotic structures causing luminal narrowing and are pathognomonic of the condition.
Establishing the diagnosis requires an index of suspicion based on clinical presentation. Acareful history of NSAID ingestion has to be taken including prescribed and over- the- counter medications, combination medications (e.g. ibuprofen with caeine and paracetamol). Patients may deny using

NSAIDs, and serum or urinary NSAID measurements may need to be considered to conrm the diagnosis. Acid- suppressants such as omeprazole and ranitidine do not protect against small bowel ulceration secondary to NSAIDs. Management of the condition involves cessation of NSAID intake and treatment of anaemia. Ulceration should resolve upon drug cessation. Obstructive symptoms secondary to diaphragm disease may require endoscopic dilatation or surgical resection of stricturoplasty.

25. B. Bone marrow culture
• Enteric fever is characterized by fever and gastrointestinal involvement including abdominal pain, diarrhoea or constipation, and, rarely, intestinal perforation
• Blood, urine, and stool culture for microbiological diagnosis perform poorly compared with bone marrow culture
Typhoid and paratyphoid fever (collectively enteric fever) are caused by Salmonella enterica serovar typhi (formerly Salmonella typhi) and Salmonella paratyphi A, B, and C.Typical presentation includes fevers, rose spots and relative bradycardia or pulse– temperature dissociation. Later, gastrointestinal features predominate including abdominal pain (60%), diarrhoea or constipation (30%), and rectal bleeding (10%). Intestinal perforation from necrosis of ileocaecal Peyer’s patches occurs in 10% of hospitalized patients. Laboratory investigations usually demonstrate leucopenia or leukocytosis, and mildly elevated LFTs. Transmission is faecal– oral and is endemic in South Asia, parts of South­East Asia, the Middle East, Central and South America, and Africa. Oral and parenteral vaccines are available for Salmonella enterica serovar typhi but are imperfect, with the oral vaccine oering a cumulative three- year ecacy of 50%. Amicrobiological diagnosis can be made by positive cultures of blood (40%), stool (37%), and urine (7%). Although invasive, bone marrow culture is positive in 90% of cases, making it the most sensitive diagnostic investigation, and it should be considered in complicated cases of suspected treatment failure due to antimicrobial resistance.
