Overview
Pathophysiology
IBS is a functional disorder of visceral hypersensitivity which may lead to abdominal discomfort, diarrhea and constipation. [1] [2] [3]
The pathophysiology of IBS is uncertain. It has been postulated that this may be secondary to psychological causes. Yet, some patients with IBS do not have any noteworthy psychological symptoms.[1][2]
Genetics
- [Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
Associated Conditions
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
