Solitary rectal ulcer syndrome in children. A report of three cases.
Solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (SRUS) is a rare condition in children. It is well recognised in the adult literature. We report our experience with 3 patients; two boys presented at a very young age (18 and 24 months, respectively) with a clinical picture simulating inflammatory bowel diseases. The other patient was a fifteen-year-old girl presenting with severe rectal stricture as a result of the syndrome, which is the first to be reported in the paediatric literature.
