We performed capsule endoscopy for a patient with immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced enteritis and found multiple erosions or small ulcers in the small intestine. No reports demonstrated the effectiveness of capsule endoscopy for immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced gastrointestinal adverse events, and our case suggests that capsule endoscopy may be useful to evaluate immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced enteritis.
我们对一名患有免疫检查点抑制剂诱导性肠炎的患者进行了胶囊内镜检查,发现小肠有多处糜烂或小溃疡。尚无报告表明胶囊内镜检查对免疫检查点抑制剂诱导的胃肠道不良事件有效,而我们的病例提示胶囊内镜检查可能有助于评估免疫检查点抑制剂诱导的肠炎。
