  • Title: [Ischemic colitis manifested as Crohn's disease. A case report].
    Author: Durando R, Viora T, Rispoli P, Freddi M, Palestini N, Mazzucco G.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1992 Sep; 83(9):567-70. PubMed ID: 1436609.
    Abstract:
    Ischaemic colitis has many and different clinical features as it is often linked to the severity of ischaemic injury. In this paper two patients with clinical features of Crohn's disease are reported. In both patients the diagnosis has been confirmed with endoscopy and biopsy. They have been treated with specific therapy until they developed bowel obstruction in one case and peritonitis in the other. Both patients underwent laparotomy and the histological specimen showed a picture of ischaemic colitis. In one case a Dixon's resection was done, in the other Hartmann's operation.
