摘要:

When evaluating patients suspected to have inflammatory bowel disease, we generally focus on the important differential features which distinguish ulcerative colitis from Crohn's disease. A distinction between them is possible in 80–90% of cases when accepted clinical, radiographic, and pathologic criteria are applied. The remaining idiopathic cases are usually classified as colitis, indeterminate type. In this presentation, major attention will also be directed to a variety of other disorders which may masquerade as idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease. The pathologic features to be described which serve to identify these “impostors” will emphasize appearances in biopsy material.

摘要:

About one-third of all patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have Kaposi's sarcoma. Gastrointestinal involvement has been noted in 50% of homosexual men with cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma and AIDS. We report the abnormalities on barium studies of nine homosexual men from the San Francisco bay area who have AIDS and documented gastrointestinal Kaposi's sarcoma. Submucosal nodularity and infiltrative irregularity were the most frequently noted findings and were demonstrated in the stomach, duodenum, small bowel, and colon. The duodenum was the most frequent site of abnormality. Coalescent plaques, some with umbilications, were seen in the colon. Although nonspecific, these radiographic abnormalities are highly suspicious for Kaposi's sarcoma, particularly in patients with or at high risk for AIDS, especially homosexual men.
