Squamous cell metaplasia of colorectal epithelium is very rare. There have been only 29 cases previously reported in the English language medical literature. The cause and consequences of squamous cell metaplasia in the colorectum are unknown. We encountered a patient with squamous cell metaplasia in rectum who have had a curious history for more than 20 years. This case may be useful in attempting to understand the pathogenesis of squamous cell metaplasia in colorectum.
结直肠上皮的鳞状化生非常罕见。英文医学文献中此前仅报道过29例。结直肠鳞状化生的病因及后果尚不清楚。我们遇到了一名直肠鳞状化生患者,其有着一段长达20多年的奇特病史。该病例可能有助于尝试理解结直肠鳞状化生的发病机制。
