[Pancreatic cancer screening in a clinical practice setting: it is the moment of Prevention].

Pancreatic cancer surveillance can improve outcomes in high-risk individuals. However, little is known about its applicability and findings in routine clinical practice. Our aim was to evaluate findings on screening tests in high-risk individuals in a clinical practice setting and to analyze factors associated with the presence of relevant pancreatic lesions.

Effectiveness of ultrasound in the differential diagnosis of ileitis detected by computed tomography.

CASE REPORT A 86-year-old man with a recent history of stent placement for infrarenal aortic aneurysm arrives to the emergency department with abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) is performed to rule out complications of the endovascular procedure. The CT showed a loop of ileum with decreased caliber, fat trabeculation and hypervascularity causing proximal dilatation.

Prognostic value of ultrasound activity and parietal healing in patients with Crohn's disease.

Introduction: the "treat to target" strategy for the management of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) requires simple, reliable and non-invasive tools for continuous monitoring of the disease. Intestinal ultrasound has been proposed as an emerging technique that could be very useful in this field.

Material And Methods: patients who had undergone an intestinal ultrasound in the clinical practice between February 2013 and October 2018 at our hospital were retrospectively included.

Is the degree of i2a recurrence in Crohn's disease secondary to ischemic phenomena?

Introduction: the Rutgeerts score is used to assess post-surgical recurrence of Crohn's disease (CD). The score initially consisted of four grades, with a subsequent sub-classification of grade 2, under which ulcers confined to the anastomosis (i2a) are considered to be of a probable ischemic origin. The aim of this study was to assess whether ulcers confined to the anastomosis appear at the same frequency in patients undergoing surgery for other causes and can therefore be attributed to post-surgical changes.
