 The facts about upper gastrointestinal tract lesions complicating ulcerative colitis(UC)are being elucidated, but with the exception of backwash ileitis and pouchitis many aspects of widespread small bowel lesions are unclear. In the present study we assessed the clinical picture centered on 3 cases in which capsule small bowel endoscopy examinations were performed in pancolitis type UC and post-total-colectomy cases, and cases in the existing literature. In the cases in which capsule endoscopy was performed, erythema, aphthae, and small ulcers were observed, mainly from the mid-portion to the distal small bowel, and in 2 of the cases lesions were present diffusely. Moreover, improvement of the small bowel lesions was observed in 2 cases in which a repeat examination was possible after prednisolone therapy for large bowel lesions. At the present time it is difficult to determine by capsule endoscopy alone whether there are small bowel lesions associated with UC, but the presence of diffuse lesions seems to be a finding that raises suspicion of an association with UC. The investigations by capsule endoscopy in this study showed that minute lesions are also present over a large extent of the small bowel in UC. In the future it will be necessary to investigate the clinical significance of small bowel lesions in UC in greater detail.
