ENDOSCOPIC FINDINGS AND COLONIC PERFORATION IN MICROSCOPIC COLITIS; A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW

Microscopic colitis (MC) is a clinical syndrome of severe watery diarrhoea with few or no endoscopic abnormalities. The incidence of MC is reported similar to that of other inflammatory bowel diseases. The need for histological confirmation of MC frequently guides reimbursement health policies. With the advent of high-definition (HD) coloscopes, the incidence of reporting distinct endoscopic findings in MC has risen. This has the potential to improve timely diagnosis and cost-effective MC management and diminish the workload and costs of busy modern endoscopy units.
