Abstract

Eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases may affect the colon; however, isolated colonic involvement is very rare. Diagnosis of eosinophilic colitis requires clinical suspicion and it should be differentiated from other disorders causing eosinophil accumulation in the colon tissue. Herein we present a 46-year-old female admitted to the hospital with the complaints of bloody diarrhea (25-30 times a day), fever, abdominal pain and weight loss. Eosinophilic colitis was diagnosed and she was treated with steroid successfully

Özet

Eozinofilik gastrointestinal hastalıklar kolonu etkileyebilir. Bununla birlikte izole kolon tutulumu oldukça nadirdir. Eozinofilik kolit tanısı için klinik olarak şüphelenmek gerekir. Kolonda eozinofil birikimine neden olan diğer hastalıklardan ayırtedilmelidir. Burada günde 25-30 defa kanlı ishal, yüksek ateş, karın ağrısı ve kilo kaybı şikayetleri ile hastaneye başvuran 46 yaşındaki bayan hastada eozinofilik kolit tanısı konulmuş ve steroid ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilmiş bir vaka sunulmuştur.
