title: Ileoscopic diagnosis of terminal ileitis.
abstract: Crohn's disease of the bowel is usually diagnosed by complete barium contrast studies of the gastrointestinal tract. However, at times, in spite of a high index of clinical suspicion, the radiologic diagnosis is not conclusive. In the present report, we describe five patients with Crohn's ileitis in whom the diagnosis was established only at ileoscopy.
