Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, traditionally regarded as being limited to the colorectum. Although several gastroduodenal lesions have been reported in cases of UC, in general, duodenal lesions in UC are believed to be uncommon and gastric lesions in UC are a rare presentation. In this report, we presented a 66-year-old lady with upper GI presentation with gastroduodenal ulcerative colitis accompanying pancolonic UC.

ObjectiveTo describe and investigate the potential causes of the isolated caecal patch lesion, a previously undescribed endoscopic phenomenon of a lesion fulfilling endoscopic and histopathological criteria for chronic inflammatory bowel disease but without evidence of similar inflammatory pathology elsewhere at colonoscopy.MethodsCases were collected prospectively by one specialist gastrointestinal pathologist over a 10-year period. Full endoscopic and histopathological analysis was undertaken and follow-up sought to understand the likely cause(s) of the lesions.ResultsSix cases are described. Two had very close links with ulcerative colitis, one predating the onset of classical distal disease and the other occurring after previous demonstration of classical distal ulcerative colitis. Two occurred in younger patients and we postulate that these lesions may predict the subsequent onset of chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Finally two can be reasonably attributed to the effects of non-steroidal inflammatory agent therapy.ConclusionsCaecal patch lesions can be demonstrated in isolation. Despite the strong association of caecal patch lesions with ulcerative colitis, solitary lesions may well have disparate causes but nevertheless possess a close relationship with chronic inflammatory bowel disease.

The extradigestive manifestations of chronic inflammatory bowel disease most often affect the articulations, skin, eyes, liver and bile ducts. Renal involvement is rare, and manifests as kidney stones, glomerulonephritis, tubulointerstitial nephritis, and secondary amyloidosis. In this context of chronic inflammatory bowel disease, in particular ulcerative colitis, renal involvement is very often secondary to nephrotoxicity of the basic treatment of digestive pathology, and very rarely an authentic extradigestive manifestation of intestinal disease. We report a case of IgA nephropathy as an extra-digestive manifestation of ulcerative colitis. The objective of this study is not to neglect the IgA nephtopathy as an extradigestive manifestation of IBD which, even though rare, remains a condition to be looked for by clinicians during the follow-up of IBD.

Chronic Inflammatory Bowel

Annotation. “Voluntary childlessness” as a consequence of fear of infertility, doubts about the ability to cope with pregnancy in the presence of the disease, the hereditary nature of the disease and adverse effects on the fetus; improper medication; self-modification or discontinuation of therapy in patients with CIBD (chronic inflammatory bowel disease) are significant not only medical but also social problems that currently remain unresolved. The aim of this work is to provide up-to-date evidence for the optimal diagnosis and treatment of chronic inflammatory bowel disease before conception, during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. A detailed analysis of the social, somatic, gynecological and obstetric history of women with inflammatory bowel disease was performed. The examined patients were divided into the main group (ulcerative colitis) (n=40) and control groups (almost healthy women) (n=30). The first main clinical group underwent prophylactic therapy using a drug containing active folate of the 4th generation "Quatrefolic" (equivalent to 400 μg of folic acid), potassium iodide 1 table. per day and vitamin D 1000 IU per day, starting from the planning stage of pregnancy). The second major clinical group received, in addition to Quatrefolic and potassium iodide, vitamin D 4,000 IU per day during the pre-pregnancy phase and 2,000 IU per day during pregnancy and 1,000 IU per day in cases of placental dysfunction and anemia. The formation of observation groups was carried out by methods of continuous and selective analysis. Statistical processing of research results was performed using the software package Statistica 6.0. The obtained indicators were processed statistically with the determination of the arithmetic mean (M) and the error of the standard deviation (±m), at p<0,05. Risk ratio (RR) and confidence interval (CI) were determined with a given reliable probability p=95%. Comparison of groups by case frequency was performed using the exact Fisher test (two-way criterion). Pregnant women with ulcerative colitis have a better clinical efficacy of preventive therapy using the 4th generation active folate “Quatrefolic” (equivalent to 400 mcg of folic acid) and vitamin D 4000 IU at the pre-pregnancy stage and 2000 IU after pregnancy verification compared with active folate 4th generation “Quatrefolic” (equivalent to 400 mcg of folic acid) and vitamin D 1000 IU.

Chronic Inflammatory Bowel

Definition Chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of childhood is generally defined as either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn disease (CD). The inflammation of UC is restricted to the mucosal lining of the colon, with the colonic involvement beginning universally in the rectum and extending proximally continuously. Although proctitis, persistent isolated involvement of the rectum, is common in adults (40%), it is rare in children (&lt;10%). In contrast, the enteric inflammation of CD is transmural and involves any level of the intestinal tract discontinuously. The intervals of relatively normal bowel are termed "skip areas." In CD, characteristic lesions range from oral ulcerations to perianal lesions, although the most frequently involved area is the terminal ileum of the small bowel, a process termed ileitis. Recognition of these conditions by pediatricians is important because the peak incidence of IBD is in the second decade. Fewer than 5% of patients are diagnosed prior to age 5 years. In many children presenting with isolated colitis, the diagnosis of the chronic inflammation of IBD is established by biopsy before a clinical distinction between UC and CD can be established. These children carry the diagnosis of chronic nonspecific colitis or colitis type indeterminant. In our experience, the disease in approximately 50% of these children evolves within 5 years into more classic cases of UC or CD.

Summary: Introduction: Association between hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exists. Prevalence of IBD in patients with HS is not clear. The aim of this paper is to determine the prevalence of IBD in patients with HS, evaluate risk factors and possible phenotype of patients with HS and IBD. Methods: Single center retrospective analysis of 241 patients with HS was carried out and medical files were searched for inflammatory bowel disease accordingly. Epidemiologic data of HS were collected. Results: IBD had a prevalence of 5.8%. Out of this number 13 (92.9%) suffered from Crohn’s disease (CD) and 1 (7.1%) from ulcerative colitis (UC). Eight patients (57.1%) were referred to the dermatologist by gastroenterologist and in six patients (42.9%) history of IBD was detected by dermatologist during routine examination. Special phenotype of the disease associated with IBD was not confirmed. The study points out possible existence of common comorbidities and risk factors such as smoking and obesity. Discussion: Our study confirmed similar data like those available in literature, where strong association between CD and HS is present and weaker with UC and HS. Conclusion: The prevalence of IBD in HS patients (5.8%) however these patients do not have a distinct HS phenotype. Key words: hidradenitis suppurativa – chronic inflammatory bowel disease – Crohn’s disease – ulcerative colitis – comorbidities – association – risk factors
