Abstract:
Two cases of uncommon side effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are presented which show that in special cases NSAID lesions can be located predominantly in the proximal colon, that NSAID-caused lesions may present themselves as diaphragm-like strictures and that alterations by NSAID in this part of the bowel may bring enormous problems for the differential diagnosis.
