    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Colitis cystica profunda (CCP) is a rare gastrointestinal condition.
    • It presents as mucin-filled cysts located beneath the muscularis mucosae.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinicopathologic features of five CCP cases.
    • To emphasize the importance of accurate diagnosis to differentiate CCP from malignancy.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of five patient cases with Colitis cystica profunda.
    • Analysis of clinical and pathological findings.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed description of the clinicopathologic characteristics of the five patients.
    • Highlighted features aiding in differentiation from other conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • Increased awareness of Colitis cystica profunda among clinicians and pathologists is crucial.
    • Accurate diagnosis can prevent misclassification as carcinoma, reducing the need for extensive surgical intervention.
