Abstract
Ileocolonoscopy has a high accuracy in the detection and differentiation of various forms of inflammatory bowel disease. The main differential still centers around ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Ileocolonoscopy has also increasingly been used in the evaluation of the value of different therapeutic regimes and in screening for malignancy in patients with longstanding ulcerative colitis. L'iléocoloscopie offre une grande précision dans le dépistage et le diagnostic différentiel de multiples maladies inflammatoires intestinales (M.I.I.). Les problèmes discriminatoires demeurent centrés sur le diagnostic entre côlite ulcéreuse (C.U.) et maladie de Crohn (M.C.). L'iléocoloscopie est également de plus en plus utilisée dans l'évaluation des effets de schémas thérapeutiques et dans le dépistage des lésions malignes chez les malades atteints de côlite ulcéreuse de longue durée.Keywords
