42
Q

Ulcerative colitis. what is it? where? and what lining does it affect?

A

severe ulcerating inflammatory disease that is limited to the colon and rectum-extends only to mucosa and submucosa.

43
Q

Crohn disease

A

enteritis-may involve any area of the GI tract-and is frequently transmural. “skip lesions”-note noncaseating granulomas.

44
Q

Both UC and Crohn’s-are more frequent in…….

A

women, teens and early 20s for presentation.

45
Q

UC and Crohns are both _____ not auto-immune. what is the most probable cause

A

idiopathic-
Felt these 2 diseases result from a combination of
1. deficits entailing host interactions and GI microflora,
2. intestinal epithelial dysfunction and
3. aberrant mucosal immune responses.

46
Q

UC related to Crohn-but UC is limited to the _____ and always occurs in ______

A

colon-and UC always involved the rectum.

47
Q

hybrid of the 2 diseases is called what

A

Indeterminant Colitis”

48
Q

Tumors of the Small Intestine account for less than ____ % of all GI tumors

A

5%

49
Q

benign tumors of small intestines

A

leiomyoma

50
Q

malignant tumors of small intestines

A

Adenocarcinomas, carcinoid tumors (often associated with hormone production) and lymphoma.

51
Q

Most common malignancy of the GI tract is what

A

Adenocarcinoma of the Colon

52
Q

T/F Although the small intestine comprises 75% of the length of the GI tract, colon is site of many more tumors. Overall, the GI tract is an uncommon site for neoplasia.

A

TRUE

53
Q

small intestines or colon has more tumors?

A

colon

54
Q

what is second only to lung cancer deaths in the US

A

colorectal cancer

55
Q

what is implicit is causing adenocarcinoma

A

Dietary factors are implicated- especially low intake of unabsorbable vegetable fiber and high intake of refined carbohydrates and fat.

Genetic component: increased incidence in FAP patients.

colon cancer

FAP + Extraintestinal lesions =

A

Gardner’s syndrome.

Unerupted teeth, supernumerary teeth, dentigerous and mandibular cysts, increased risk for odontomas. Also develop benign skin lesions.

64
Q

you need what to diagnose FAP

A

Require > or equal to 100 polyps

65
Q

Second most common polyposis syndrome

A

Peutz Jegher Syndrome

66
Q

Peutz Jegher Syndrome

A
  1. Gastrointestinal hamartomatous polyps and pigmented macules of mucous membranes and skin.

67
Q

Crohn’s Disease Clinical manifestations

A

a. Chronic intermittent diarrhea +/- blood, colicky abdominal pain
b. Presents in young adulthood

68
Q

Pathology of Crohns

A

a. Segmental transmural inflammation of bowel, particularly ileum
b. Frequently spares the rectum
c. Ulcerations, granulomas, thickened bowel wall with fat wrapping, fissure and fistula formation

69
Q

Crohn’s disease - Oral manifestations:

A

Multifocal, linear, nodular, polypoid or diffuse mucosal thickening with predilection for labial and buccal mucosa and mucosal folds –Can be confused with aphthous ulcers.

Subepithelial, noncaseating granulomatous inflammation identical to those seen in the bowel. Infections (fungal, TB) should be ruled out.

70
Q

Ulcerative Colitis clinical

A

Diarrhea, tenesmus, colicky lower abdominal pain

risk for development of carcinoma

71
Q

Pathology Ulcerative Colitis

A
  • Begins in rectosigmoid area and extends proximally. Not transmural
  • Continuous (diffuse) involvement, not patchy
  • Small to large ulcerations, crypt abscessesGreater risk of dysplasia and adenocarcinoma
  • Association with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC)
72
Q

Ulcerative colitis - Oral manifestations:

A
  • Scattered, clumped or linearly oriented pustules on an erythematous mucosa at multiple oral sites with variable severity. 10% of patients develop arthritis of temporo-mandibular joints.
  • Lesions mimic the crypt abscesses of colonic lesions with no evidence of granulomas. Rule out candidiasis, benign migratory glossitis, and pemphigus vegetans.
73
Q

severe ulcerating inflammatory disease that is limited to the colon and rectum-extends only to mucosa and submucosa. ….Ulcerative colitis or Crohns

A

Ulcerative colitis

74
Q

regional enteritis-may involve any area of the GI tract-and is frequently transmural. “skip lesions”-note noncaseating granulomas….ulcerative colitis or Crohns

Crohns

are more frequent in women, teens and early 20s for presentation.
