PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS COLITIS COMPLICATING ULCERATIVE COLITIS
Digestive Endoscopy, 2010Clostridium difficile toxin (CD toxin) causes antibiotic‐associated colitis, or pseudomembranous colitis (PMC). Although CD toxin is sometimes found in the stools of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), UC is rarely complicated by PMC. We report herein a case of PMC complicating UC, and present a review of the literature.

The disorder predominantly affects middle-aged women, and its course tends to be benign.

Ischemic colitis almost always occurs in older patients. Because life expectancy is increasing, more and more often physicians will face this problem. The aim of this study was to identify factors leading to surgery in the acute phase of the disease, and to evaluate mortality and long-term follow-up evaluation.We performed a retrospective study of 73 ...

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2003
A diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) is based on a combination of clinical, histologic, endoscopic, and radiologic data. The distinction between UC and CD can be difficult because of the lack of a differentiating single gold standard.
