CHAPTER 6 | SMALL INTESTINALDISORDERS
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, ciprooxacin, noroxacin, 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 sucient to diagnose coeliac disease
in the absence of villous atrophy and an inammatory inltrate in the lamina propria. Inammatory
bowel disease and pancreatic exocrine insuciency are unlikely here.

overgrowth. Aliment Pharmacol Ther. 203;38(8):925– 934. Doi:0./ apt.2479.
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 eect of bile acid
sequestrants
The most likely diagnosis here is BAM. Resection of the distal ileum (usually >100cm) 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.

malabsorption. Aliment Pharmacol Ther. 204;39(9):923– 939. Doi:0./ apt.2684.
24. C. NSAID metabolites
• Non- steroidal anti- inammatory drug (NSAID) enteropathy classically presents with small
bowel ulceration, abdominal pain, iron- deciency 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 aected. 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- deciency 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. Acareful
history of NSAID ingestion has to be taken including prescribed and over- the- counter medications,
combination medications (e.g. ibuprofen with caeine and paracetamol). Patients may deny using

NSAIDs, and serum or urinary NSAID measurements may need to be considered to conrm 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.

207;5(4):446– 455. Doi:0.527/ ir.207.5.4.446.
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 oering a
cumulative three- year ecacy of 50%. Amicrobiological 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.

locations. Expert Rev Anti Infect Ther. 20;9(6):7– 725. Doi:0.586/ eri..47.
