What is Ulcerative Colitis?
Ulcerative colitis is irritation (inflammation) of the inner lining of the large intestine also known as Colon (portion of the intestine where water is reabsorbed and waste materials for excretion) are stored temporarily .It also involves the lining of the rectum
The inflammation of the inner lining of the colon results in ulceration, swelling which can give rise to painful bowel movements, bloody diarrhea (bloody stools) and rectal bleeding .
In medical term this disease is grouped under “Inflammatory bowel Disease “
Ulcerative colitis has an incidence of 1 to 20 cases per 100,000 individuals per year, and a prevalence of 8 to 246 per 100,000 individuals.
It is found worldwide, but is most common in the United States, England, and northern Europe. It is especially common in people of Jewish descent. Ulcerative colitis is rarely seen in Eastern Europe, Asia, and South America, and is rare in the black population. For unknown reasons, an increased frequency of this condition has been observed recently in developing nations. it may also indicate that an industrial or Western diet and lifestyle increases the prevalence of this disease
Ulcerative colitis is an intermittent disease, with periods of exacerbated symptoms, and periods that are relatively symptom-free.
In patients with ulcerative colitis, however, the immune system is abnormally and chronically activated in the absence of any known invader. The continued abnormal activation of the immune system causes chronic inflammation and ulceration.
In short it is an autoimmune condition where the body immunity cells are fighting against the own body tissues –causing damage to the lining of the colon and rectum and alternating its function producing abnormal symptoms like bloody diarrhea and painful defecation.
It causing a general distress in the patient where day to day activities of the individual gets affected.

Diagnosis of Ulcerative Colitis
The best test for diagnosis of ulcerative colitis remains sigmoidoscopy to see inner nature of the lining of the colon and the rectum.
While performing of endoscopy the physician can see the vasculature (blood supply), ulceration and any out-growth like polyps.
The physician may elect to limit the extent of the exam if severe colitis is encountered to minimize the risk of perforation of the colon. Usually in serve cases it not performed to limit the spread of the disease.

Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis
Standard treatment for ulcerative colitis depends on extent of involvement and disease severity. The goal is to induce remission initially with medications, followed by the administration of maintenance medications to prevent a relapse of the disease. The concept of induction of remission and maintenance of remission is very important.
Iron supplementations have to be given as there can be severe anemia.
Ulcerative colitis can be treated with a number of medications, including 5-ASA drugs such as sulfasalazine and mesalazine.
Corticosteroids such as prednisone can also be used due to their immunosuppressant properties and short-term healing properties, but because their risks outweigh their benefits, they are not used long-term in treatment.
Side effects of drugs can cause major effect on the body, mostly they are immune-suppressive they weaken the immunity of the body further.
They cannot halt the disease progress
Some of the common side effects of the drugs are
- Increased blood sugar levels,
- Depression,
- Immunosuppresion,
- Weakness of bones
- Swelling of the face,
- Peptic ulcer and
- Avascular necrosis of the head of the femur
Role of Surgery in Ulcerative Colitis
If there is serious complication –intestinal perforation –leading of heavy blood loss –Gastrointestinal Activity of the gut is halted –endanger to life the patient may be taken immediately for surgery and the concerned part of the colon can be excised
Ulcerative colitis affects many parts of the body outside the intestinal tract. In rare cases, the extra-intestinal manifestations of the disease may require removal of the colon.
