Human Pathology, 2023
Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of colon with clinical presentations of chronic, watery, nonbloody diarrhea, and normal or almost normal endoscopic findings.

Although endoscopic studies are normal, inflammatory changes and (in the case of collagenous colitis) collagen deposition occur histologically in the colonic mucosa. The pathogenesis of these disorders remains a mystery,

Focal Lymphocytic Colitis and Collagenous Colitis

The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1999
The morphologic findings in mildly active colonic Crohn's disease (CD) include crypt disarray, patchy edema, and small lymphoid aggregates with neutrophils, sometimes associated with aphthous ulcers. We describe four patients with CD whose colonic biopsies focally showed a lymphocytic colitis morphology, and one patient with CD whose biopsies showed a ...
