Ulcerative colitis is a relatively uncommon, chronic, recurrent inflammatory disease of the colon or rectal mucosa. Often a lifelong illness, the condition has profound emotional and social impact on the affected individual.
Ulcerative colitis is defined as continuous idiopathic inflammation of the colonic or rectal mucosa. The rectum is involved in more than 95% of cases. Some authorities believe that the rectum is always involved in an untreated patient. Partial healing may occur in a patient treated with topical therapy, creating diagnostic confusion.
The incidence of ulcerative colitis peaks in people aged 15-25 years and in people aged 55-65 years, although it can occur in people of any age.
The causes of ulcerative colitis include:
  • Autoimmune phenomena: Serum and mucosal autoantibodies against intestinal epithelial cells may be involved. Persons with ulcerative colitis are often found to have p-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
  • Immune-mediated phenomena: Abnormalities of humoral and cell-mediated immunity and/or generalized enhanced reactivity against intestinal bacterial antigens may be causes. A loss of tolerance against indigenous enteric flora is believed to be the central event in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
  • Genetic susceptibility (chromosomes 12 and 16) is a factor associated with ulcerative colitis. A positive family history (observed in 1 in 6 relatives) is associated with a higher risk for developing the disease.
  • Smoking is negatively associated with ulcerative colitis. This relationship is reversed in Crohn disease.
  • Environmental factors may be involved.
  • Dietary factors: Milk consumption may exacerbate the disease.
  • Appendectomies have a negative association with ulcerative colitis.
