ABSTRACT
Ischemic colitis represents most common form of gastrointestinal ischemia, usually developed in elderly or debilitated patient with a variety of underlying medical problems. The presumed etiologies are numerous. It usually presents as an acute abdominal illness with bloody diarrhea. Subacute ischemic colitis in healthy adults develops spontaneously in the absence of major vasculature occlusion, and the original insult precipitating the ischemic event usually cannot be established. Diagnosis is based on the clinical symptom, barium study, colonoscopic and histopathologic findings. Therapy and outcome are depen-dent on the severity of disease. It usually requires only medical management and is asso-ciated a good prognosis. We report a case of subacute ischemic colitis in healthy adults developed after severe watery diarrhea with literatures.
