Abstract:

Background and Aim: Liver Cirrhosis patients are more prone to lower gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding hypothetically caused by portal hypertensive colopathy (PHC) and anorectal varices (ARVs). The present study aimed to determine the incidence of colopathic lesions and investigate their association with cirrhosis severity and portal hypertensive colopathy manifestation. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 80 liver cirrhosis patients in the Department of Gastrointestinal, CMH Hospital Lahore from January 2021 to December 2022. Individuals aged >18 years with liv

Abstract:

The adverse effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the colon have been reported as a wide spectrum of symptoms, signs, and endoscopic findings. Despite the extensive use of NSAIDs, and the potential seriousness of NSAID colopathy, this condition often goes unrecognized or misdiagnosed. We report three cases of NSAID colopathy in which the diagnosis of malignancy was incorrectly made based on endoscopic findings. Before any surgical intervention, we entertained the diagnosis of NSAID colopathy based on clinical presentation. Ultimately, in two of the three cases, surgery wa

Abstract:

‘Apoptotic colopathy’ is an umbrella term signifying a pattern of injury where the gastrointestinal biopsy shows a colitic picture with apoptosis as the predominant histological feature. Although the entities within apoptotic colopathy share a common histological feature— ‘apoptosis’, there is a list of varied clinical differential diagnoses that produce this similar histological pattern of injury. These include graft-versus-host disease, drug-induced injury due to multiple drugs (in particular, mycophenolate mofetil, check point inhibitor therapy and some others), infections (particularly cyt

Abstract Introduction/Objective Colonic injury with increased epithelial cell apoptosis can be sometimes seen in colonic biopsies; raising a broad differential diagnosis. The possible etiologies include graft-versus-host disease and, drug- induced injury (including but not limited to mycophenolate mofetil, checkpoint inhibitors, antimetabolites, and tumor necrosis alpha inhibitors), infections (particularly cytomegalovirus and adenovirus), and immune disorders (common variable immune deficiency and autoimmune enterocolopathy).

The portal hypertension is responsible for many of the manifestations of liver cirrhosis. Some of these complications are the direct consequences of portal hypertension, such as gastrointestinal bleeding from ruptured gastroesophageal varices and from portal hypertensive gastropathy and colopathy, ascites and hepatorenal syndrome, and hypersplenism. In other complications, portal hypertension plays a key role, although it is not the only pathophysiological factor in their development.

Computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen with intravenous contrast revealed focal mucosal thickening in the cecum which was highly suspicious for colonic malignancy. She had a colonoscopy which showed two masses and ulcers in the right colon, pathology was negative for malignancy and
