Abstract

A 76-year-old Japanese man was referred to our hospital for ileus . Both an abdominal CTscan and abdominal X-ray showed linear calcification along the intestinal wall from the ileum to the sigmoid colon. Colonoscopy revealed edematous blue-purple colored mucosa in the colon and the ileum. Histological examinations of the biopsied specimen showed hyaline-likedegeneration around the small vessels and fibrous thickening at the submucosal layer . From these findings the patient was diagnosed as having phlebosclerotic colitis, which might be responsible for ileus. We reviewed forty previously reported cases of this disease including the present one.
