Abstract:

Ulcerative colitis is a non-specific intestinal inflammatory disease that mainly affects the rectum and colon, typically characterized by chronic, persistent, and recurrent symptoms. The lesion is limited to the mucosal layer or muscular layer, mainly characterized by ulcers, and may be accompanied by varying degrees of intestinal wall congestion, edema, and bleeding. The patients' clinical symptoms include intermittent diarrhea, feces with mucus and pus, abdominal pain, and urgency. This disease is difficult to cure, has a high recurrence rate, and a high cancer transformation rate, and is closely related to the incidence of colon cancer. Western medicine medication often uses mesalazine enteric coated tablets, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, etc. Generally, treatments, such as rest and nutritional support, are used. For patients who meet surgical indications, total colectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis can be used. With the continuous development of traditional Chinese medicine surgery, the internal and external treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine have unique advantages and good therapeutic effects in the classification and treatment of ulcerative colitis. This article summarizes the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and research status of ulcerative colitis in recent years.
