Phlebosclerotic colitis (PC), also known as idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis, is a rare disease resulting in ischemic colon due to venous sclerosis and calcifications that can be identified by characteristic imaging features on computed tomography and colonoscopy. Clinical examination reveals nonspecific symptoms with slow progression in the majority of cases. Patients with PC often require late-stage hospitalization and colectomy. We report a 79-year-old man with long-term clinical symptoms who used herbal medicines. Computed tomography and colonoscopy studies revealed several classical PC characteristics, and the patient subsequently underwent emergency total colectomy.
静脉硬化性结肠炎(PC),也称为特发性肠系膜静脉硬化,是一种罕见疾病,由于静脉硬化和钙化导致结肠缺血,可通过计算机断层扫描和结肠镜检查的特征性影像学表现来识别。临床检查显示,大多数病例症状不具特异性且进展缓慢。PC患者常需晚期住院治疗并接受结肠切除术。我们报告一名有长期临床症状且使用草药的79岁男性。计算机断层扫描和结肠镜检查显示出一些典型的PC特征,该患者随后接受了急诊全结肠切除术。
