A steerable small bowel biopsy apparatus was evaluated in 56 infants and children over a 15-mo period. A mean time of only 6 min was required to obtain small bowel biopsies. Biopsies were successfully obtained in 92% of patients on the first attempt; repeat attempts were successful in all cases. No complications were encountered. The steerable biopsy tube appears to be a safe and effective means of obtaining small bowel biopsies rapidly in infants and children.
在15个月的时间里，对56名婴幼儿和儿童使用了一种可操控的小肠活检装置进行评估。获取小肠活检样本平均仅需6分钟。92%的患者在首次尝试时成功获取了活检样本；所有病例在重复尝试时均获成功。未出现并发症。这种可操控的活检管似乎是在婴幼儿和儿童中快速获取小肠活检样本的一种安全有效的方法。
