Overview
It depends on the Pathologic event that causes the symptomatic disease.
Diffrenetial Diagnosis
If the Bleeding occurs the differential diagnosis for Lower GI Bleeding should be consider including[1]:
- Anorectal source of bleeding(hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectal ulcers)
- Neoplasia (polyps and cancers)
- Angiodysplasia
- Postpolypectomy
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Other colitis (infectious, antibiotic associated, colitis of unclear etiology)
- Small bowel/upper GI bleed
