A196 MORE MICROSCOPIC THAN WAS THOUGHT: A RARE CASE OF ISOLATED LYMPHOCYTIC ILEITIS WITHOUT MICROSCOPIC COLITIS

摘要

Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon characterized by lymphocytic infiltration with (collagenous colitis) or without (lymphocytic colitis) the expansion of collagen fibres, and the normal macroscopic appearance of the mucosa on ileocolonoscopy. Recent studies have shown that the ileum may be involved in MC, occurring concurrently with colonic disease, however there is sparse literature on isolated lymphocytic ileitis without colitis.
