Clinical signs of portal hypertension were treated by a shunt technique. After an asymptomatic period, the patient suffers now from crisis of angiocholitis.
We present the case of a 63-year-old female who with no previous history presented with episodes of self-limited diarrhea without fever, general repercussions, abnormal elements or tenesmus. Biochemistry: no abnormality. Parasite and feces culture: negative. Colonoscopy: at 20 to 40 cm from the anal margin were found polypoid lesions covered with normal mucosa. Barium enema confirmed the presence of multiple lacunar defects and possible parietal gas. Biopsy: submucous cysts with foreign body type giant cells. Mixed infiltrate. The differential diagnosis was made between intestinal enterogenous cyst, lymphangioma, retractable mesenteritis and deep cystic colitis, concluding with pneumatosis coli that evolved favorably.
