site of uc
rectum +- along colon
site of cd
anywhere from mouth to anus
perianal and skin
distribution / image of uc
diffuse
continuous
confined to mucosa
(only calcaneal patch ie appendix can be skipped)
distribution/ image of cd
patchy
transmural
features of uc
cryptitis crypt abscess goblet cell distribution crypt architecture distorotion crypt loss
features of cd
patchy
lymphoid aggregates
granulomas
crypt stuff preserved
uc ulceration
broad based, shallow may undermine mucosa
cd ulceration
apthaous ulcers
deep fissuring ulcers
granulomas uc
uncommon
assoc. to ruptured ulcers
gramulomas cd
common may be transumural and involve lymph nodes
which uc or cd has fistulae and strictures
cd
which cd or uc more likely to have inflammatory polyps
uc get pseudopolyps
may be larger in cd tho
other features of uc
paneth cell metaplasia
pseudopolyps
other features of cd
pyloric metaplasia in si
cobblestone mucosa from ulcers
what is pouchitits
after a proctocolectomy which removes the colon and rectum
the ileal is joined to anus = ileal pouch anal anasatomosis
this pouch can get inflamed as stores faeces
