Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to review the colonofiberscopic findings in the 21 patients with tuberculous colitis, diagnosed by colonofiberscopic findings including histopathology and by follow-up observation after anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy. The results are as follows: 1) The male to female ratio was l. 33(R:4) and the average age of the patiets were 34. 9 years in men and women respectively. 2) The chief complaints were abdominal pain in 15 cases(71.4%), diarrhea in 14(66.7%), weight loss in 12(57. 1%), anorexia in 8(38, 1%), and so on. 3) Anemia and an increase in ESR were major abnormalities in hemogram. 4) On the chest X-ray examination, 65% of the cases showed active tuberculous lesions and the barium enema disclosed the changes suggesting tuberculous colitis in 52. 6% of the cases. 5) On colonofiberscopy 8 cases were ulcerative, 6 were hypertropbic and 7 were ulcerohypertrophic. 6) Histopathologic examination of the biopsy material from the colonofiberscopy revealed granulomata with caseation necrosis in 2 cases, granulomata without caseation necrosis in 8 cases, and the findings of chronic inflammation in 11 cases. 7) This study suggests importance of colonoscopic examination including histopathologic study of the biopsy material in the diagnosis of tuberculous colitis. The diagnostic efficieocy would be much improved if bacteriological examinations of the specimen could be developed.
