Abstract

Background/aims: It is known that ulcerative proctitis might show extension, but in practice, patients with proctitis are not considered as important with regard to regular follow-up and treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extension of ulcerative colitis cases limited to the rectum and compare them with the patients with rectosigmoid and left colonic ulcerative colitis for their features, risk factors influencing the extension and natural course of the disease. Methods: The study involved 193 (62 rectal, 49 rectosigmoid and 82 left-sided) ulcerative colitis patients. Results: Fourteen percent of the patients showed extension to at least one proximal segment in 3.9±2.9 (range: 0.8-12) years. The extension was found as 16.1% in proctitis, 12.2% in rectosigmoiditis and 13.4% in left-sided colitis groups. Extension was found 2.79-fold (95% confidence interval: 1.1-7.1) higher in patients with chronic active disease. Further, the patients with amoebic attacks, those under steroid treatment and those without treatment showed higher risk for extension. Conclusions: Patients with proctitis, like the patients presenting with more extensive colitis, should be offered regular treatment and follow-up.

Özet

Amaç: Ülseratif proktitin ekstansiyone olabileceği bilinmektedir, ama pratikte proktitli hastalar ciddi hasta olarak kabul edilmezler. Bu çalışmanın amacı rektuma sınırlı ülseratif kolit olgularının proksimale ekstansiyonunu araştırmak ve bunları rektosigmoid ve sol kolona sınırlı olgularla özellikleri, ekstansiyonu etkileyen faktörler ile hastalığın seyri yönünden karşılaştırmaktır. Yöntem: Çalışmaya toplam 193 (62 rektum, 49 rektosigmoid ve 82 sol kolon) ülseratif kolitli hasta alındı. Bulgular: Hastaların %14’ü ortalama 3.9±2.9 (range: 0.8-12) yılda en az bir segment daha proksimale ekstansiyon gösterdi. Ekstansiyon oranı proktitli hastalarda %16.1, rektosigmoid tutulumlu hastalarda %12.2 sol kolon hastalarında %13.4 olarak bulundu. Kronik aktif hastalığı olan hastalarda ekstansiyon oranı 2.79 kat (%95 güven aralığı: 1.1-7.1) daha fazla bulundu. Ayrıca amibik atak geçiren hastalar, steroid tedavisi alan hastalar ile tedavisiz kalan hastaların ekstansiyon riski daha yüksekti. Sonuç: Proktit ile başvuran hastalara da daha ekstansif hastalıkla başvuranlara olduğu gibi düzenli tedavi ve izlem uygulanmalıdır.
