Colonic Malakoplakia With an Adenomatous Appearance on Magnification Endoscopy: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Malakoplakia is a rare chronic granulomatous disease associated with impaired macrophage phagocytosis of bacteria. Because colonic malakoplakia presents with varied endoscopic appearances, its characteristic features have not been clearly defined, and differentiation from colorectal neoplasms during endoscopy may be difficult. We report a case
