Microscopic colitis (MC) is an inflammatory disease of the large intestine associated with urgent watery diarrhoea. MC may occur in people of all ages, although the disease primarily affects older women. Once believed to be rare, MC is now known to be a common cause of chronic watery diarrhoea in high-income countries, affecting 1 in 115 women and 1 in

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2004
As the diagnosis of microscopic colitis (MC) is made on the basis of histologic criteria, it is crucial to render an accurate microscopic interpretation. Features include 20 or more lymphocytes per 100 epithelial cells, mixed lamina propria inflammatory infiltrate, and preservation of crypt architecture for both lymphocytic and collagenous colitis (CC).

Microscopic colitis (MC), collagenous colitis (CC) and lymphocytic colitis (LC), represent a pathological entity causing chronic secretory diarrhea with endoscopically normal colon. Histological diagnosis is obtained by biopsies done throughout the colon.

Gastroenterology, 2011
Microscopic colitis is a common cause of chronic watery diarrhea, especially among older persons. Diagnosis requires histologic analysis of colon biopsy samples in the appropriate clinical setting. Recent studies have shown an increase in the incidence of microscopic colitis, and several have addressed potential mechanisms.

Microscopic colitis: a missed diagnosis?
The Lancet, 2004Collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis, collectively designated microscopic colitis, have until recently been considered as rare gastrointestinal disorders. New data suggest, however, that these disorders are relatively common, and to reach the correct diagnosis both the gastroenterologist and the pathologist must be aware of these diagnoses when ...

Microscopic colitis (MC) causes chronic diarrhea, abdominal cramping, nausea, and weight loss. Colonic mucosa appears normal on endoscopy; however, biopsies show abnormalities such as intraepithelial lymphocytosis in lymphocytic colitis, and a thickened subepithelial collagen band in collagenous colitis.

Overview of microscopic colitis
British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2020Microscopic colitis encompasses both collagenous and lymphocytic colitis and is a relatively common condition with rising incidence. Diagnosis is by colonoscopy (which is usually normal but may show some mild changes) and biopsies which reveal characteristic histological findings.

Microscopic colitis (MC) is characterized by a triad of watery diarrhea, usually normal colonoscopic findings and typical microscopic findings. Two distinct histological forms of MC have been defined: lymphocytic colitis and collagenous colitis, but overlapping features may be present.

Pharmacotherapy for Microscopic Colitis
Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 2007Microscopic colitis is a common cause of chronic watery diarrhea. Its etiology is unknown, but use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, aspirin, and lansoprazole may be risk factors for developing the disorder. Therapy is directed primarily at resolving the symptoms of microscopic colitis; bismuth subsalicylate, aminosalicylates, traditional ...
