The Sudanese Society of Gastroen-terology
held its annual International
Conference in Khartoum from Janu-ary
27th to January 31st 2016. The
Academic Program was held at the
Corinthia Hotel and was divided into
the Post Graduate Course and the
Scientific Program. Many local and
regional speakers contributed to the
rich program. International speakers
participated from Sweden, United
Kingdom, India, Saudi Arabia, and
South Africa.
The Post Graduate Course was
aimed at junior physicians and sur-geons
as well as endoscopy trainees.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE
POSTGRADUARE COURSE:
Approach to Dyspeptic Patient:
Management Update
The definition and epidemiology of
Dyspepsia were reviewed. The UK’s
National Institute for Health and
Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines
published in 2015 were summarized
as follows:
• Attempt to establish a specific
diagnosis
• Address life style and risk factors
• Red flag symptoms, urgent endos-copy
+/- Biopsy
• Simple Dyspepsia, test and treat
versus empirical treatment
• Endoscopy if still symptomatic
Dysphagia: It’s Not Always Malignant
The treatment options of benign
esophageal strictures and current
treatment of benign dysphagia in
Sudan were highlighted. Comprehen-sive
data about the etiology of benign
dysphagia in Sudan was presented ac-cording
to endoscopy units records in
Shaab, Soba, and Ibn Sina hospitals.
• Benign conditions are second to
cancer in the etiology of dysphagia
in Sudan.
• Endoscopic dilatation is the main
treatment for benign strictures,
with results comparable to the
international standards.
• In Sudan, it is time to introduce
less invasive procedures that are
equally effective alternatives to
open myotomy in the manage-ment
of achalasia.
