Overview
Ischemic colitis may be classified largely on the degree of the histopathological damage in the colonic wall: reversible colopathy (submucosal or intramural bleeding), transient colitis, chronic segmental ischemia, gangrenous colitis, and universal fulminant colitis. Also, based on its clinical course into two types: acute ischemic colitis or chronic ischemic colitis.
History and Symptoms
Ischemic colitis can be classified into:[1][2][3][4][5]
- Reversible ischemic colopathy
- This type is characterized by submucosal haemorrhage at endoscopy, with involvement of superficial mucosa.
- It is typically self-limiting.
- Transient: the most common form at
- These patients present with abdominal pain, per-rectal bleeding and full-thickness involvement of the mucosa.
- Chronic segmental or chronic ulcerative
- These patients present with persistent symptoms or recurrent episodes of pain, per-rectal bleeding, diarrhoea, and segmental colitis on imaging.
- Resection is often curative.
- Ischaemic colonic stricture
- This may be detected acutely, however, more frequently is found at follow-up endoscopy.
- Gangrenous colitis
- 9.9–19% of cases.
- This should be suspected when there is increasing abdominal pain, signs of local or generalized peritonitis, fevers or associated ileus.
- Universal fulminant pancolitis
- 1–2.5% of cases.
- This presents acutely with severe symptoms, progressive transmural infarction and necrosis of the entire colon, resultant sepsis and perforation with a 75% mortality rate.
- These patients present with sepsis, severe abdominal pain, peritonitis and per-rectal bleeding.
Classification of ischemic colitis by percentage | |

Cancers | Percentage (%) |
Reversible ischemic colopathy | 3-26.1 |
Transient | 45 |

Ischemic colonic stricture | 10-15 |
Ischemic colonic stricture | 10-15 |
Ischemic colonic stricture | 10-15 |
Ischemic colitis can be classified based on its clinical course into two types:
