This study reports the first case of collagenous pouchitis in a patient with collagenous colitis. Antibiotic therapy resolved the condition, suggesting bacterial load may influence its development.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Colorectal Surgery
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Collagenous colitis presents with watery diarrhea and subepithelial collagen thickening.
  • Medically refractory cases may necessitate surgical intervention, such as proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis.
  • The development of pouchitis after such surgery is a known complication.

Observation:

  • A patient with refractory collagenous colitis developed symptoms post-proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis.
  • Histological examination revealed collagenous colitis features in the ileal pouch, termed collagenous pouchitis.
  • The pre-pouch neo-terminal ileum showed no pathological changes.

Findings:

  • This is the first reported case of collagenous pouchitis.

  • Histological changes of collagenous pouchitis resolved after antibiotic therapy.
  • The localized nature of the pathology to the pouch suggests specific etiological factors.

    • Implications:

    • The findings suggest that fecal stasis and bacterial load may contribute to the pathogenesis of collagenous pouchitis.
    • This case highlights a potential complication in patients with collagenous colitis undergoing pouch surgery.
    • Further research into the role of the microbiome in collagenous pouchitis is warranted.
