BACKGROUND
To observe microscopically the ileal mucosa invaded by lymphomononuclear in patients with chronic diarrhea, despite of normality of its endoscopic aspect leaded to name this discovery as microscopic ileitis. This investigation look answer to the question: is the microscopic ileitis
Fecal bile salt excretion was studied in healthy volunteers, patients with regional ileitis, and patients with ileal resection. 10 muc of carboxyl-(14)C-cholic acid was given orally. Stools and urine were collected daily for 5-10 days, the bile salts extracted, and the radioactivity assayed. Urinary
BACKGROUND
Lymphocytic colitis and microscopic enteritis are relatively common causes of chronic diarrhea and it is characterized by an intraepithelial lymphocytic infiltrate. There have been no previous reports of coexistence between these 2 pathologies.
OBJECTIVE
To describe histological and
OBJECTIVE
Chronic nonbloody diarrhea (CND) is a frequent intestinal disorder, with a relevant economic impact. Besides colonic diseases, alterations of the terminal ileum could be involved in CND pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to assess the role of retrograde ileoscopy with biopsy in CND
Terminal ileitis was diagnosed in three flocks of lambs in different areas of Alberta. Salient clinical features in affected lambs were progressive emaciation with diarrhea, and in some lambs, frequent abdominal stretching. Postmortem findings included thickening of the ileal, and in some animals,
In 53 patients with chronic diarrhea ileoscopy was done following colonoscopy. Beside the microscopic examination, terminal ileum biopsies and mucosal smears were also performed. Endoscopy of the terminal ileum was abnormal in eight patients (15.1%); biopsy itself was diagnostic in 22 patients
OBJECTIVE
Suspected acute ileitis (AI) is a poorly defined clinical condition with multiple causes; its diagnostic protocol has not been standardized properly. We performed a prospective evaluation of the incidence and causes of AI to create a standard protocol for diagnosis.
METHODS
The definition
We report here on a 40-year-old woman with abdominal pain, low-grade fever, and diarrhea in whom the cutaneous features of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) appeared only a few days after acute abdominal symptoms. Endoscopy showed terminal ileitis, and histopathological examination of a biopsy of the
Collagenous ileitis (CI), characterized by subepithelial collagen deposition in the terminal ileum, is an uncommon condition. The few cases reported to date have been associated with collagenous colitis (CC) or lymphocytic colitis. Thirteen cases of CI retrieved over a 9-year period were
OBJECTIVE
Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) often have bile acid diarrhea (BAD), due to bile acid malabsorption following ileal resection (IR). Bile acid malabsorption increases production of 7α-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (C4), a bile acid precursor. We investigated relationships between serum
Microscopic ileitis has been infrequently reported in the literature with the few reported cases usually associated with concurrent microscopic colitis. Having encountered a case of collagenous ileitis involving the diverted distal limb of a loop ileostomy and sparing the proximal limb, we examined
Yersinia enterocolitica infection presents a wide clinical spectrum; in infants and young children it usually presents as uncomplicated acute diarrhea, while in older children and adolescents it more frequently presents as terminal ileitis and/or mesenteric adenitis. We describe two infants who
Very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) (inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] before 6 years of age) may manifest as a monogenic disease affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Syndromic diarrhea/trichohepatoenteric syndrome (SD/THE), a rare disorder caused by alteration of a complex involved
BACKGROUND
A 21-year-old white male with a 3-year history of back pain presented with a 6-month history of weight loss (without significant gastrointestinal symptoms), lethargy and left hip pain, and diarrhea that had lasted 4 days.
METHODS
Barium follow-through, upper and lower gastrointestinal
