Multiple hyperplastic inflammatory polyps complicating quiescent ulcerative colitis.

A patient with well-controlled and currently asymptomatic ulcerative colitis had II unusually large polypoid lesions in his colon demonstrated by barium enema X-ray examination and colonoscopy. Previous histological descriptions of inflammatory polyps did not adequately describe their morphology, and the term "hyperplastic inflammatory polyp" is suggested.

A further case of chronic ulcerative enteritis.

A further case of chronic ulcerative enteritis is presented. In this case there was clear evidence that the ulcerative process was superimposed upon atrophic jejunitis with malabsorption. The development of ulceration produced a picture of small bowel obstruction and its differential diagnosis from neoplasm was not possible without laparotomy.
