Clinical Characteristics and Incidence of Perianal Diseases in Patients With Ulcerative Colitis

Abstract: PurposeWhile perianal disease (PAD) is a characteristic of patients with Crohn disease, it has been overlooked in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Thus, our study aimed to analyze the incidence and the clinical features of PAD in patients with UC.MethodsWe reviewed the data on 944 patients with an initial diagnosis of UC from October 2003 to October 2015. PAD was categorized as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, abscesses, and fistulae after anoscopic examination by experienced proctologists. Data on patients’ … Show more

“…Sub-species F. tularensis subspecies holarctica spread mostly in Europe, while the sub-species F. tularensis subspecies tularensis exist frequently in North America. Although it is the same bacteria can be identified in more than 250 different animal species, but the exact path of transmission to humans is not yet clear [118]. In order to avoid serious illness and complications, it is necessary to appropriate early treatment after identifying pathogens.…”

“…40% with acute anal fissure will convert to chronic one. 1,2 It has been observed that constipation is the primary and sole cause of commence of a fissure. Transit of hard stool, irregularity of diet, use of spicy and pungent food, flawed bowel habits and deficiency of local hygiene can contribute for initiation of the pathology.…”

“…This may deprive them of the opportunity for construction of an ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA). Population‐based studies estimate that 2–16% of patients with UC have proctological pathology, underscoring the need for an appropriate understanding of diagnosis and treatment in this group .…”

“…However, this practice is influenced by data from the 1970s and 1980s, well before medical treatment included biological therapy [4,5]. While the safety of excisional haemorrhoidectomy is being revisited in CD [6], the situation in UC remains largely unstudied, despite an estimated incidence of bleeding haemorrhoids in UC patients of 7% [1,4,[6][7][8][9][10][11].…”
