The clinical evolution of patients with enteric failure is frequently intricate and the complications related to this condition are often difficult to be identified. Aim - In this study we describe the follow up of 7 patients with enteric failure submitted to frequent enteroscopy to evaluate their enteric failure complications. Patients casuistic – Seven patients were considered for a period of about two years after the diagnosis of enteric failure. The patient’s age ranged from 17 to 44 years old, for men and three women. The diagnosis of enteric failure include complex portomesenteric thrombosis (VI degree) with portal hypertensive enteropathy causing intestinal claudication due to hereditary thrombophilia; short bowel due to arteritis of superior mesenteric artery caused by Sjogren syndrome; short bowel following intestinal obstruction due to adherence of previous surgery; short bowel arteritis due to intoxication with anabolic steroids; short bowel due to congenic disorders of intestinal rotation and fixation in two cases and necrotized volvulus of the intestine in postpartum. Results All patients were submitted to at least three enteroscopy assessments during the study period. In all cases this procedure was efficient in the aspect of intestinal mucosa and the length of the remnant intestine. Enteroscopy was also efficient to identify segmental intestinal perforation blocked by the epiploon due to ischemic necrosis, with mild abdominal symptoms, indicating an urgent abdominal operation in one case. In one case it was efficient to evaluate the severityof chronic mesenteric ischemia due to the portalcongestive enteropathy. Conclusion; Double Balloon Enteroscopy was efficient in assess the complications of enteric failure, to determine the length and the aspect of the remnant intestine and may be a good exam for the routine of the patient care in pre-operatory of surgical intestinal rehabilitation or intestinal transplantation.
