ABSTRACT
A case of a fourteen years old boy
with complaints of dispepsia in the last
2 months associated with anorexia end
weight loss is presented. He had frequent
bowel movements (4-5 times a day),
some during the night, for the last one
and a half year. He presented hypocromic
microcytic anemia with low serum iron
and ferritin, and elevated values of ESR
and PCR. The upper digestive endoscopy
showed ulcerative esophagitis with
inflammatory infiltrate of the mucosa, with
the participation of lymphocytes, plasmocytes
and neutrophils but without eosinophils.
Colonoscopy and colon biopsies
confirmed the diagnosis of Crohn colitis.
Diagnosis: Crohn disease with esophageal
lesions.
