More than ten years experience with the enteroclysis technique have shown that frequently disappointing results are achieved, always due to technical faults in the performance of the technique. In this article the most important factors for proper technique and the most frequently occurring causes of bad results are mentioned.

Background: High output enterostomy leads to malnutrition and fluid/electrolyte loss which may be challenging to manage despite dietary modification, anti-motility, anti-secretory drugs, and parenteral nutrition. Distal infusion stomal enteroclysis (DISE) is an alternative to restore nutritional deficit and replace parenteral nutrition in resource-limited settings where treatment cost and availability of trained nurses are limiting factors.
Objective: To assess the effectiveness and feasibility of DISE in managing postoperative enterostomal output.

Background: Magnetic resonance enteroclysis (MRE) has been widely applied to diagnose Crohn's disease (CD). Magnetic resonance (MR) at 3.0 T improves signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), shortens image acquisition time, and shows more advantages.

Background: Small bowel tumors (SBT) are infrequent and represent a small proportion of digestive neoplasms. There is scarce information about SBT in Latin America.
Aim: To describe the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, diagnostic methods, and survival of malignant SBTs.

Gastrointestinal bleeding of undetermined origin (GBUO) is defined as gastrointestinal bleeding without an identified cause or location despite an endoscopic assessment including an esogastroduodenal endoscopy (EOGD) and a total colonoscopy. A distinction is made between exteriorized GBUO and non-exteriorized occult GBUO. The causes in the majority of cases (vascular, inflammatory and tumoral) are located in the small intestine.

Background: Magnetic resonance enterography/enteroclysma (MRE) is an examination technique without ionizing radiation that allows assessment of bowel wall changes and extraluminal pathologies/complications such as in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, among others.
Objectives: To discuss requirements for optimal MR imaging of the small bowel, technical basis of MRE and principles for the development and optimization of a MRE protocol, and clinical indications for this specific imaging technique.
Materials And Methods: Guidelines, basic and review papers will be analyzed.
