Abstract:
Contemporary opinions on etiology and pathogenesis of ischaemic colitis have been presented. Diagnostic difficulties in endoscopic and pathologic examination of colonic ischaemic changes have also been discussed. Some aspects of differential diagnosis of ischaemic colitis has been discussed. The literature opinions and authors own experience indicate that ischaemic colitis is still serious histoclinical problem which could be resolved only if close cooperation of gastrologists and pathologists has been applied.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
