 Since its introduction to clinical practice 15 years ago, capsule endoscopy has become a crucial diagnostic tool for the investigation of small intestinal pathologies, particularly in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. It has also been clinically used for the investigation of the esophagus and colorectum. Furthermore, the comparative study between gastric capsule endoscopy and conventional gastroscopy has been ongoing. When considering that a swallowed capsule is eventually excreted from the anus, it seems ideal to investigate the whole gastrointestinal tract by capsule endoscopy in a single session. However, several issues may need to be resolved to assure a favorable diagnostic yield and high completion rate because the characteristics of each segment of the gastrointestinal tract are anatomically different.
