    Abstract:
    Inflammatory pseudopolyposis of the colon is an uncommon anatomoclinical entity. It is generally associated with ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease or schistosomiasis. We report a case of a pseudopolyposis in Crohn's disease involving the entire colon. This case was characterized by three particular facts: a) the pseudopolyps were composed of granulation tissues only, b) severe exudative enteropathy was the most important symptom, c) the endoscopic ablation of the polyps, performed for the first time in Crohn's disease pseudopolyposis, resulted in clinical and biological improvement.
