Abstract:
Background:Ulcerative colitis(UC)is often accompanied by a variety of extraintestinal manifestations. Recently, the role of extraintestinal manifestations in diagnosis and treatment of UC has aroused widespread concern in clinical practice. Aims:To study the extraintestinal manifestations of patients with UC in order to elevate diagnosis level of UC. Methods:A total of 208 inpatients from June 2008 to September 2011 at Beijing Military General Hospital were enrolled. The extraintestinal manifestations of UC were retrospectively analyzed. Results:The ratio of male to female was 1. 14: 1, mean age was(41. 17 ± 13. 57)years,mean disease duration was(62. 6 ± 79. 4)months. Thirty-three patients had proctitis,52 had left-sided colitis,and 123 had extensive colitis. Forty-nine patients were mild UC,80 were moderate UC, and 79 were severe UC. The incidence of extraintestinal manifestations was 28. 8%(60 / 208);13 patients(6. 3% )had more than one extraintestinal manifestation. The main extraintestinal manifestations were oral ulcer(13. 0% ),arthropathy (11. 1% ),hepatobiliary disease( 3. 8% ) and skin lesion( 1. 4% ). The trend of incidence of extraintestinal manifestations increased from patients with proctitis,left-sided colitis to extensive colitis(21. 2% ,28. 8% ,30. 9% , respectively),however,the difference was not statistically significant(P > 0. 05). No significant difference in incidence of extraintestinal manifestations in patients with mild UC,moderate UC and severe UC was found(22. 4% ,33. 8% ,27. 8% , respectively)(P > 0. 05). Conclusions:Patients with UC are often accompanied by extraintestinal manifestations,and the recognition of extraintestinal manifestations is helpful for improving diagnosis and treatment level of UC.
