Ischemic colitis: clinical practice in diagnosis and treatment Theodoropoulou A; Koutroubakis IEWorld J Gastroenterol 2008[Dec]; 14 (48): 7302-8Ischemic colitis is the most common form of ischemic injury of the gastrointestinal tract and can present either as an occlusive or a non-occlusive form. It accounts for 1 in 1000 hospitalizations but its incidence is underestimated because it often has a mild and transient nature. The etiology of ischemic colitis is multifactorial and the clinical presentation variable. The diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical suspicion, radiographic, endoscopic and histological findings. Therapy and outcome depends on the severity of the disease. Most cases of the non-gangrenous form are transient and resolve spontaneously without complications. On the other hand, high morbidity and mortality and urgent operative intervention are the hallmarks of gangrenous ischemic colitis.|Adrenal Cortex Hormones/therapeutic use[MESH]|Colitis, Ischemic/*diagnosis/etiology/*therapy[MESH]|Colon/diagnostic imaging/pathology/surgery[MESH]|Colonoscopy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Severity of Illness Index[MESH]|Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
