【my opinion about the case】
1), just depending on the【FOLLOW-UP TO GASTROSCOPY & COLONOSCOPY REPORT】, then diagnosis the Crohn’s disease. whether next time it would be diagnosed after a repeat colonoscopy in 5 years to check for a mucosal granuloma and faecal calprotectin .
I am writing by way of follow-up to my gastroscopy and colonoscopy report
As you know the gastroscopy was normal including gastric and duodenal biopsies. The colonoscopy revealed are diminutive polyp in the ascending colon which on histology revealed a focal active colitis with a mucosal granuloma (i.e. not a true polyp). There was a very slight increase in vascular pattern in the sigmoid colon. The ileal, transverse colon and rectal biopsies were normal but interestingly the biopsies from the ascending, descending and sigmoid colons all are longer of 5 lobular showed mild chronic colitis with paneth cell metaplasia although there was no increase in chronic inflammatory
cells.
The histological findings in the colon correlate well with her elevated faecal calprotectin of 392ug/g and are suggestive of chronic inflammatory bowel disease. The distribution is suggestive of Crohn’s disease rather than ulcerative colitis.
2), she has not the symptom of the Crohn’s disease EXCEPT the abdomen pain. such as diarrhea, blood in stool, nonreasoned fever, nonreasoned, weight lost.
3), the treatment’s effective is very good, no right lower abdomen pain after 2 sessions, and 95% improvement in the left up abdomen after 5 sessions treatments.
4), I had a examination in the her fist visit me, I found that there are pressing pain beside the spine and there are the sensitive area with needle in the left up abdomen and the right lower abdomen. (please see the above the video).
5), she started the Pentasa 3000mg to 4000mg a day, after being diagnosed the Crohn’s Disease, but it’s the side effect was too bad, so she did not take it.
