OBJECTIVE: Intestinal ultrasound is considered to be a valid alternative for the evaluation of post-operative recurrence (POR) of Crohn's disease. The aim of this study is to assess the correlation between ultrasound and endoscopic findings.
METHODS: Patients with Crohn's disease were retrospectively recruited who had undergone ileocecal resection, and for whom a colonoscopy and intestinal ultrasound had been performed for the detection of POR. Recurrence was assessed using the Rutgeerts score (RS). The ultrasound findings analysed were bowel wall thickness (BWT), parietal hyperaemia using power Doppler, loss of layer pattern and mesenteric fat hypertrophy.
RESULTS: A total of 31 patients were included, of which 15 (48.4%) had no POR (RS<2b) and 16 (51.6%) had POR (RS≥2b). A statistically significant association was identified between BWT and the presence of endoscopic recurrence (a mean of 2.75mm vs. 5.68mm, P>0.001). There was also a statistically significant difference in hyperaemia between the 2groups (P=0.03). For wall thickness, an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 92.9% was obtained, and with a cut-off point of 3.4mm, a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 86.6%. When comparing with the most frequent biomarkers (fecal calprotectin and serum CRP), a higher AUC was obtained for wall thickness (72.3% and 72.3% vs. 92.9%).
CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, ultrasound has high diagnostic efficacy in the detection of POR and can be considered a valid non-invasive alternative to endoscopy.
