Acute terminal ileitis was for many years thought to be due only to Crohn's disease, though most patients found at laparotomy to have this condition did not progress to the chronic form of Crohn's disease. A case of acute terminal ileitis due to Yersinia pseudotuberculosis is presented here to draw attention to another, perhaps predominant, cause of this condition.
多年来,急性末端回肠炎一直被认为仅由克罗恩病引起,尽管大多数在剖腹手术中被发现患有这种疾病的患者并未发展为慢性克罗恩病。本文介绍了一例由假结核耶尔森菌引起的急性末端回肠炎病例,以引起人们对这种疾病另一个可能更主要病因的关注。
