Clinical outcome of the first ten years of ulcerative colitis and proctitis.

269 patients with ulcerative colitis and a history of less than 6 months when first seen at St. Mark's Hospital in the decade 1966--75 have been followed for up to 11 years. The outcome has been correlated with the maximum extent of the disease observed within 3 months of presentation. 75 patients required hospital admission, 56 within a year of presentation. Extensive colitis developed in 60 patients. The cumulative probability of the disease being extensive was 21% +/- 3% at 5 years and 29% +/- 4% at 10 years. 25 patients required surgical treatment. The cumulative probability of operation was 8% +/- 2% at 5 years and 15% +/- 4% at 10 years. 19 patients are known to have died. The expected number of deaths was 19.2.

Proctitis with caecitis: an atypical presentation of ulcerative colitis.

Ulcerative colitis is characterized as an inflammatory process of the distal colonic mucosa, which may extend proximally. Its proximal extension is classically as a continuous lesion. We describe six patients presenting with typical ulcerative proctiits, who were also found to have an inflammatory area in the caecum, while the remaining colon was macroscopically and histologically normal. With no features to support a diagnosis of Crohn's disease, we believe these cases challenge the classic teaching that ulcerative colitis is a continuous disease. Performing total colonoscopy in patients who seem to have solely distal colitis will permit recognition of this distribution of inflammation.
