Severe acute ischemic colitis: What is the place of endoscopy in the management strategy?
Background and study aims Ischemic colitis (IC) is potentially lethal. Clinical and biology information and results of computed tomography (CT) scan and/or colonoscopy are used to assess its severity. However, decision-making about therapy remains a challenge. Patients and methods This wa...

Twenty-nine patients (41 %) underwent surgery and 24 (34 %) died. The endoscopic grades were: 15 grade 1 (21 %), 32 grade 2 (45 %), and 24 grade 3 (34%). Regarding patients with grade 3 IC, 55 % had hemodynamic instability, 58 % had severity signs on CT scan, 68 % underwent surgery, and 55 % died. The decision to perform surgery was based on hemodynamic status in 62 % of cases, CT scan data in 14 %, endoscopic findings in 10 %, and other in 14 %.

Background and study aims Ischemic colitis (IC) is potentially lethal. Clinical and biology information and results of computed tomography (CT) scan and/or colonoscopy are used to assess its severity. However, decision-making about therapy remains a challenge.
