[Coloscopy in the diagnosis of inflammatory diseases of the large intestine].
The usefulness of coloscopy in the diagnosis of inflammatory disease of the large intestine is discussed. A nosological classification was obtained in 440/493 instances of inflammation noted in over 3000 coloscopies-on the basis of the clinical, radiological, endoscopic and histological findings. The endoscopic picture for each disease is described, with particular reference to the main features upon which correct differential diagnosis and classification depend. Coloscopy is virtually indispensable in obtaining a complete clinical study of inflammatory diseases of the colon.
