Collagenous gastroenterocolitis, a rare cause of chronic diarrhea, can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract. This case highlights the importance of upper and lower GI biopsies for accurate diagnosis and management.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Collagenous gastroenterocolitis is a rare condition causing chronic diarrhea.
  • It presents diagnostic challenges due to its rarity.

Observation:

  • A 41-year-old woman presented with severe diarrhea.
  • Initial gastroscopy and colonoscopy appeared normal.
  • Biopsies revealed a subepithelial collagenous band in the stomach, duodenum, and colon.

Findings:

  • Treatment with parenteral nutrition, salazopyrine, and prednisolone normalized bowel transit.
  • A residual collagenous band in the colon resolved over time.
  • The patient experienced complete recovery without ongoing symptoms or abnormalities after 5 years.

Implications:

  • Subepithelial collagen deposits can extend beyond the colon.
  • Systematic gastro-duodenal and ileum biopsies are recommended for patients with collagenous colitis.
  • This case underscores the need for comprehensive diagnostic evaluation in suspected collagenous gastroenterocolitis.
