BACKGROUND: Phlebosclerotic colitis (PC) is a rare form of nonthrombotic colonic ischemia. This retrospective study analyzed the clinical findings and temporal CT changes in 29 PC patients with long-term follow-up.
METHODS: Twenty-nine patients with characteristic CT features of PC collected between 1997 and 2020 were stratified into the acute abdomen group (AA-group) (n = 10), chronic-progressive group (CP-group) (n = 14) and chronic-stable group (CS-group) (n = 5). Clinical and CT changes during follow-up, comorbidities and final outcomes were compared.
RESULTS: The AA-group exhibited a significantly thicker colonic wall and more involved segments and pericolic inflammation than the CP-group and CS-group on initial CT (p = < 0.001-0.031). Seven patients in the AA-group who underwent right hemicolectomy had no recurrence during follow-up (mean ± SD, 7.1 ± 3.3 years), and the remaining three patients with renal or hepatic comorbidities who underwent conservative treatment died within 14 days. The CP-group showed significantly higher frequencies of chronic renal failure, urinary tract malignancies and liver cirrhosis than the AA-group (p = 0.005-0.008). In addition, CT follow-up (7.9 ± 4.3 years) showed significant increases in mesenteric venous calcifications, colonic wall thickening and involved colonic segments (p = 0.001-0.008) but conservative treatments were effective. The CS-group remained unchanged for years (8.2 ± 3.9 years).
CONCLUSIONS: Early surgery offered excellent prognosis in PC-related acute abdomen denoted by marked right colonic wall thickening and pericolic inflammation on CT. Conservative treatments with a wait-and-watch strategy were appropriate for CP-PC and CS-PC, albeit CP-PC harbored significant increases in calcifications, colonic wall thickening and affected segments in long-term CT follow-up.
