    Abstract Objectives Ileal intubation during screening colonoscopy can serve as supportive evidence of complete examination. However, most studies conducted in Western countries showed a limited value of ileal inspection in asymptomatic patients undergoing colonoscopy. Therefore, our aim is to determine the clinical yield of routine ileal examination during the performance of screening colonoscopy in a cohort of patients in the Middle East and identify factors associated with successful ileal intubation in this setting. Methods A retrospective review of a prospectively collected database of all screening colonoscopies was performed at a single endoscopy unit. The patients were divided into two groups; group A included patients in whom the extent of examination was the cecum and group B comprised of those who underwent ileal intubation as well. We summarized the endoscopic and pathological findings of the ileoscopic examinations and their clinical impact. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to compare both groups and to identify factors predictive of ileal intubation in the setting of screening colonoscopy.  Results Two thousand four hundred seventy-three unique completed screening colonoscopies were analyzed (group A=1465 patients, group B=1008 patients). Overall Ileal intubation rate was 40.8%. Of the patients in group B, 3.7% were noted to have findings on ileoscopy, which were deemed to be clinically significant in almost half (1.8% overall). Univariate analysis identified the following factors as being predictive of ileal intubation during screening colonoscopy: patients' age (51.7 vs. 53.5 years, p<0.001), short cecal insertion time, endoscopists' specialty (gastroenterology 42.3% vs. surgery 24.3%, p<0.001), type of colonoscope (pediatric 47.1% vs. adult 33.5% colonoscope, p<0.001), and quality of preparation in the right colon (poor vs. adequate/good : (25.6% vs. 42.5%, p<0.001). Mixed-effects logistic regression identified patients' age, endoscopist specialty, quality of right colon preparation, and cases with short insertion time as independent variables predicting ileal intubation during SC Conclusion The clinical yield of routine ileal intubation during screening colonoscopy is low. Ileal intubation during screening colonoscopy in our cohort was more likely in younger patients with adequate/good right colon preparation and when the exam is performed by a gastroenterologist, in cases with short insertion time. Prospective studies are needed to assess our research findings and to determine the clinical value of routinely intubating terminal ileum during screening colonoscopy in the population of the Middle East.

    Abstract Background: Various possible predictors of successful terminal ileal intubation (TII) have been explored but the role of the type of colonoscope is unclear.
    Methods: We carried out a retrospective review of a prospectively collected database of all colonoscopies performed at a single endoscopy unit between May 2015 and July 2020. The primary outcome measure was successful TII in patients with specific indications for ileal examination. The primary predictor was the type of endoscope, pediatric or adult, used during the procedure. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed.
    Results: In 5845 colonoscopies fulfilling the study criteria, the overall TII rate was 67.8%. In univariate analysis, the use of a pediatric colonoscope was associated with a higher TII rate (72.1% vs. 58.8%, P<0.001). Other variables associated with successful TII based on univariate analysis included the patient's age, male sex, body mass index, endoscopists' specialty, place of training, shorter colonoscope insertion time, shorter duration of the procedure, longer withdrawal time, procedures performed in the afternoon, type of sedation administered during colonoscopy, and cleanliness of the colon. Multivariate analysis yielded an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.40 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21-1.62) for the use of a pediatric colonoscope. Propensity score-matching analysis also showed superiority of the pediatric colonoscope in achieving TII compared to an adult colonoscope, OR 1.35 (95%CI 1.17-1.57).
    Conclusions: Pediatric colonoscope increases the success of TII during colonoscopy. For endoscopists performing colonoscopy with intent to examine the terminal ileum, it is recommended to choose a pediatric colonoscope to maximize the success rate.

    Abstract Post-cholecystectomy Mirizzi syndrome (PCMS) is characterized by symptoms of recurrent abdominal pain, jaundice, and fever in patients who underwent cholecystectomy. Imaging is crucial in the diagnosis of PCMS and Mirizzi syndrome. Imaging modalities have evolved over the years with abdominal ultrasonography, computed tomography of the abdomen, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography being used in the diagnosis of PCMS and Mirizzi syndrome. The imaging findings show obstruction of the common hepatic duct due to impingement by a stone in the cystic duct or gallbladder infundibulum. PCMS management has evolved over the years with the current first-line management being endoscopic intervention. This case describes a 61-year-old male presenting with recurrent right upper quadrant pain two years after undergoing cholecystectomy due to cholelithiasis. The patient was later diagnosed with PCMS, and endoscopic management was performed with complete resolution of the symptoms.
