A. The sections show normal small bowel mucosa. <br> | |||
B. The sections show colonic-type mucosa with a mild lymphoplasmic inflammatory infiltrate and mild eosinophilia. There is no cryptitis and no crypt abscesses are identified. There is no architectural distortion. No granulomas are identified. <br> | |||
C. The sections show normal colonic-type mucosa. <br> | |||
D. The sections show colonic-type mucosa with a mild lymphoplasmic inflammatory infiltrate, mild eosinophilia and cryptitis. No crypt abscesses are identified. There is no architectural distortion. No granulomas are identified. <br> | |||
E. The sections show colonic-type mucosa with a mild lymphoplasmic inflammatory infiltrate, mild eosinophilia and cryptitis. Mild architectural distortion is present. No crypt abscesses are identified. No granulomas are identified. <br> | |||
F. The sections show granulation tissue and scant reactive colonic-type mucosa with abundant inflammatory cells, including, plasma cells, lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils. Cryptitis, crypt destruction and crypt abscesses are present. No granulomas are identified. No dysplasia is identified. <br> | |||
G. The sections show colonic-type mucosa with a mild lymphoplasmic inflammatory infiltrate, mild eosinophilia and cryptitis. Mild-to-moderate architectural distortion is present. No crypt abscesses are identified. No granulomas are identified. <br> | |||
H. The sections show colonic-type mucosa with a mild lymphoplasmic inflammatory infiltrate, and mild eosinophilia. Mild-to-moderate architectural distortion is present. Many intraepithelial lymphocytes are present. No definite cryptitis is identified. No crypt abscesses are identified. No granulomas are identified. | |||
