Overview
Radiation therapy is a common treatment modality for Abdominal and pelvic malignancy. Radiation colitis may complicate this radiotherapy. Radiation colitis tends to develop insidiously and it is often progressive.
Historical Perspective
Classification
Pathophysiology
- Occur following radiation therapy for Abdominal and pelvic malignancies .[1][2][3][4]
- More common with radiation doses higher than 45Gy.[4]
- The main site of damage is the DNA. May also affect RNA, proteins and cell membranes.
- Injury occur few hours to days, up to three months after irradiation in acute radiation colitis. It affects rapidly dividing cells of the epithelium and mucosa. This leads to cell death, recruitment and activation of polymorphonuclear (PMN) inflammatory cells, mucosal edema and damage to small blood vessels. It is usually transient and self limiting, with regeneration of the epithelium.
- In chronic radiation colitis, mesenchymal tissue is involved. The damage is progressive with atrophy of the mucosa, fibrosis of the intestinal wall, obliteration of small arteries, chronic ischemia, ulcers, and fistula formation. This changes usually occur three months to years after radiation. Secondary colonic malignancy may occur.
