[Inflammatory pseudotumors of the colon and mesocolon]
Abstract:
The authors discuss the literature data and analyse three personal cases. They show that inflammatory pseudotumors of the abdominal cavity, especially those arising from the mesocolon, are distinguished with great difficulty from true malignant tumors macroscopically. In none of their personal cases was the correct diagnosis established during surgery and extended or combined operations were carried out. The authors claim that interventions of a lesser volume can be undertaken only when skilled emergency biopsy of different areas of the new growth yields negative results.

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...
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
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by transmural...
