Top Ichilov Clinic invites only highly qualified doctors with their own developments in the field of treating diseases of the large intestine. Intestinal diseases are a fairly common diagnosis for which patients seek treatment in Israeli clinics. At Top Ichilov, a comprehensive treatment program for colonic dyskinesia has been developed, based on minimally invasive diagnostic and treatment methods.

Treatment of Colonic Dyskinesia in Israel

Colonic DyskinesiaDoctors at Top Ichilov Clinic identify several types of colonic dyskinesia, based on which an effective treatment course is selected. First and foremost, patients diagnosed with colonic dyskinesia are recommended a diet that includes mandatory consumption of fiber-rich foods (bran bread), vegetables, and fruits containing a high amount of fiber.

In hypermotor dyskinesia, the tone of the intestine increases and spasmodic contractions occur. Patients with this diagnosis at Top Ichilov Clinic are offered medication therapy using the latest medical drugs that enhance intestinal motility. Bile acids, enzymes, and vitamins are widely used in medication therapy. In hypomotor dyskinesia, drugs that enhance intestinal motility, bile acids, vitamins, and anticholinesterase drugs are used.

At Top Ichilov Clinic, patients diagnosed with "dyskinesia" are recommended to consult a dietitian who develops an effective diet based on the type of disease. Dyskinesia causes a lot of discomfort to patients, so we recommend contacting Top Ichilov Clinic at the slightest suspicion. We are ready to help you!

Diagnosis of Colonic Dyskinesia in Israel

Colonic dyskinesia is a functional disorder that arises due to impaired motor function of the large intestine. A distinctive feature of this disease is the complete absence of organic changes; however, the intestine still does not function normally.

Doctors at Top Ichilov Clinic conduct a series of precise examinations of the patient's body to establish an accurate diagnosis. In this case, a standard examination complex is carried out, based on the results of which various diagnoses are ruled out. Standard diagnostic examinations conducted for diagnosing colonic dyskinesia include:

  • Fecal analysis for hidden blood;
  • Complete blood count;
  • Intestinal examinations using contrast agents;
  • CT;
  • MRI;
  • Colonoscopy is used to examine the large intestine. A colonoscopy is performed using a flexible tube with a camera that allows for high-quality imaging.
  • Biopsy;
  • X-ray examination.
