Presentation Transcript

  1. Inflammatory Bowel Disease Kimberly Persley, MD Digestive Disease Associates of Dallas Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas

  2. What is IBD? • Chronic • Inflammation of the bowel • Idiopathic • Relapsing course

  3. IBD Spectrum Ulcerative colitis Crohn’s Disease Indeterminant colitis

  4. Epidemiology

  5. IBD Facts • Approx 1,000,000 Americans have IBD • men and women affected equally • first peak occurs between the ages of 15-30 a later peak occurs in the 7th decade

  6. Normal Intestine Vs. IBD Environmental triggers (infection, bacterial products) Failure to down- regulate Chronic uncontrolled inflammation = IBD Moderately inflamed Down-regulate Normal gut controlled inflammation Normal gut controlled inflammation

  7. Proportion of Patients with Family History of IBD by Age of Diagnosis * % Patients with Positive Family History of IBD * *p<0.005 Polito JM et al. Gastro.1996;111:580

  8. Diagnosis

  9. Diagnosis • Clinical history • Physical examination • Laboratory tests • Endoscopic findings • Radiographic findings • Histology

  10. Differential Diagnosis • Lymphoma • Infectious etiologies • Appendicitis • Diverticulitis • Carcinoma • Celiac Disease • Ischemic colitis • Irritable Bowel Syndrome

  11. Crohn’s Disease

  12. History • In 1932, Drs. Crohn, Oppenheimer and Ginzburg at Mount Sinai Medical Center described a subacute inflammatory process affecting the distal ileum • “terminal ileitis” • “granulomatous ileitis” • In 1952, Dr. Wells reported colonic involvement

  13. What is Crohn’s Disease? • Crohn’s disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disorder that may affect any part of the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract • The inflammation penetrates the lining of the GI tract and often causes ulcers Esophagus Small Intestine Stomach Large Intestine (Colon) Rectum Appendix

  14. Crohn’s Disease: Fistula

  15. Fibrostenotic Crohn’s Disease

  16. Crohn’s Disease Histology

  17. Crohn’s Disease Histology

  18. Ulcerative Colitis

  19. History • 1859, Samuel Wilks described “simple idiopathic colitis” • 1909 • Hawkins described the natural history of UC • Hurst describe the sigmoidoscopic appearance

  21. Ulcerative Colitis Histology

  22. Medical Treatment

  23. Goals of Therapy • Relieve symptoms • Prevent recurrence of symptoms • Prevent or cure complications • Control inflammation of the GI tract • Improve quality of life • Steroid sparing • Reduce the need for surgery

  24. Disease Activity • Number of bowel movements a day • presence of blood in stool • abdominal exam (tenderness) • Weight loss • Extraintestinal manifestation • Overall well-being • Vitals: fever, tachycardia • Labs: anemia,

  25. Medications for Mild-Moderate Disease • Aminosalicylates • Sulfasalazine • Mesalamine (Pentasa, Asacol, Colazal, Rowasa enema and Canasa Suppositories) • Antibiotics • Metronidazole (Flagyl) • Quinolones (Cipro)

  26. Medications for Moderate-Severe Disease • Steroids • Prednisone • Solumedrol • Budesonide (Entocort) • Immunosuppressives • Azathioprine (Imuran) • 6-mercaptopurine (Purinethol) • Methotrexate • Cyclosporin

  27. Medications for Moderate-Severe Disease • Biologics • Infliximab (Remicade)

  28. Side Effects of Sulfasalazine • Fever • Headache • Rash • Nausea/vomiting • Diarrhea • Loss of appetite

  29. Pentasa® Asacol® COLAZAL™ Stomach Small Intestine Large Intestine Mesalamine in microgranules Mesalamine w/ eudragit-S Azo bond Oral 5-ASA Release Sites Olsalazine Sulfasalazine

  30. Mesalamine Side Effects • Nausea/vomiting • Heartburn • Diarrhea • Headache • Allergic Reaction

  31. Flagyl metallic taste headache nausea/vomiting dizziness diarrhea peripheral neuropathy Cipro headache rash nausea/vomiting dizziness Achilles tendon rupture Antibiotic Side Effects
