Fulminant primary Cytomegalovirus (CMV) colitis can occur in immunocompetent individuals and mimics inflammatory bowel disease. Cytomegalovirus inclusions are found in rectal or colonic biopsy specimens. Thus, careful histological evaluation of mucosa biopsies is essential for the diagnosis of this entity.
Glutaraldehyde disinfectant solution may be a cause of toxic chemical colitis. We report two cases. Ultrasonic features were studied in one case and mimic colonic ischemia, inflammatory and/or infectious colitis. These findings were colonic wall thickening especially mucosal (hypoechogenicity) and submucosal (hyperechogenicity) layers. This diagnosis should be discussed when one sees a patient with echographic findings of acute left-sided colitis just after uncomplicated colonic endoscopy.
