Ulcerative Colitis

What is the difference between Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease?

Crohn's can affect any area of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including the small intestine. Ulcerative colitis affects only the colon. The inflammation usually involves the entire rectum and extends up the colon in a continuous manner. There are no Free Accutane Case Evaluation areas of normal intestine between the areas of diseased intestine. In contrast, such so-called "skip" areas may occur in Crohn's disease. Ulcerative colitis affects only the innermost lining of the colon, whereas Crohn's disease can affect the entire thickness of the bowel wall.
