Case 7
Presented by: Janina Orlowska, Poland
Clinical History
A 44-year-old woman with longstanding, of about 10 years duration, chronic ulcerative colitis (CUC), treated successfully with sulfasalazine, was invited to controlled colonoscopy. The patient was well, without any symptoms at presentation. Clinical and laboratory findings were not remarkable; she has not suffered either from abdominal pain and diarrhea, nor has observed the blood in the stools. There were no nodular lesions in the skin or palpable lymph nodes. She denied skin lesions in the family, as well.
In controlled colonoscopy, however, despite endoscopical features typical for CUC, consisting of poorly visible vascular pattern of the rectal mucosa, a pedunculated, round polyp of 10mm diameter was identified in the sigmoid colon, 35 cm from the anal verge. Diathermy polypectomy was performed
