TRANSVERSE COLON, BIOPSY: | |||
- SEVERE ACTIVE COLITIS WITH ATTENUATED EPITHELIAL CYTOPLASM AND ULCERATION. | |||
- CELLULAR DEBRIS. | |||
- NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA AND NEGATIVE FOR MALIGNANCY. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
The attenuated cytoplasm is compatible with ischemia; however, it is not accompanied with other suggestive findings (crypt drop out, lamina propria fibrosis, pseudomembranes). The crypt architecture is test tube-like. | |||
The differential diagnosis includes: ischemia, drug reaction, infectious etiologies and, less likely, inflammatory bowel disease. Clinical correlation is required. | |||
