| Abstract |
|
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the colonic mucosa that characteristically affects the rectum and involves
the large bowel in a contiguous distribution. Upper gastrointestinal inflammation was not believed to be present in UC, but
a few recent studies have reported a high incidence of gastroduodenal inflammation in patients with UC, although such occurrences
are apparently rare and the stomach and duodenum are not generally considered target organs in UC. Here, we present the case of a
29‐year‐old man with UC who was found to have diffuse ulcerative duodenitis with endoscopic and histologic features identical to
UC. (Korean J Med 77:493-497, 2009) |
