High Resolution Images: Ulcerative Proctitis
(Proctitis Ulcerosa)
The endoscopic images in this site are mostly quite compressed in order to make the transmissions times as short as possible. Sometimes it is however nice to have high resolution images, for example for publications, text books or lectures. In these "high resolution files" some larger images are displayed. Just click on any image to get a magnification (and then click "Back" on Your browser). Click here to get back to the index page.

Proctitis Inflammation in the rectum, affecting the rectal mucosa. The most common form of this disease is ulcerative proctitis, the mildest form of ulcerative colitis, and rectal involvement can often be seen in Crohn´s disease. Radiation therapy and some medications can cause proctitis. The main symptoms are rectal bleeding, anorectal pain and diarrhea or obstipation. Sigmoideoscopy (endoscopic examination of the rectum and distal large bowel) gives the diagnose.
